About the coin

The cleaning method is mechanical. No chemicals are used in any part of the process.
The liquid used for soaking is distilled water.
Cleaning and basic coin restoration are a hobby for me. This is not my job, I'm not a pro.
Everything I do in this video is my responsibility and at my own risk.
If you need to restore a valuable coin, go to someone who knows what is doing :)
Nothing in the video could be taken as a useful technique or advice.

for sure a long soak in distilled water help and in case you did next time try olive oil

[@fingaro]

I've tried the oil. Made a couple of tests (different periods) with both olive oil and distilled water, and I'm not sure about the results. At this point, it looks like there's almost no difference, and the olive oil is slightly better. Maybe it is just a placebo because I'm expecting oil to work better. I'll continue with the experiments.
I'll try to mention in the next videos what the coins were soaked in - water or oil.
I'm at the beginning of my long learning curve, so any advice is welcomed and appreciated 😊
