I think it is about as good as it will ever be. It appears to be slagged on one side where the 2 oughtta be.

Perhaps soaking it in olive oil for a month or so might loosen that up? :huh:

mel try heating up a little peroxide, a couple seconds in microwave and drop coin in and let soak. it will bubble awhile, after 20 min try picking gunk off with a toothpic, repeat if this helps. after i get it as clean as i think i can i put a little mineral oil on it. i may be wrong but like most ih pennies the 2 center may also be bronze.
