I need to learn to leave stuff alone. I recently found a CT copper. The faint image on the coin was really only obvious (but barely) thanks to the caked on dirt. Well... I stupidly cleaned that dirt off (just soap and water) and now all I have is a boring brown disk. The actual details are still there... they're just not so obvious. Ok, now don't laugh... Is there anyway to enhance those details by re-dirtying it up somehow? I tried rubbing the coin with the the dull side of aluminum foil, it helps, but it's nowhere near as good as how the dirt was doing it. Are there any other methods?
