clean it more or leave it

soaked my shield nickel in worcheshire sauce wondering if another soak would hurt it

I've used olive oil. I'd say another soaking wouldn't hurt. I'd just put it in a coin holder but not an airtight one after that. Nice coin.

Coin

Nice find but it may not get any better. I'd still show it off.

I would leave it as is.
You can always clean it more later, but once you have "cleaned it too much" you can never go back :no:

Yep.......leave it. I went a little too far on the only shield nickel Ive ever found , before I knew it was better to leave as is ,....now its barely distinguishable as a shield nickel.
