Care Instructions

To maintain the coin's condition, avoid cleaning it with abrasive chemicals or brushes, as this can damage the surface and reduce any potential collector value. Handle by the edges and store in a cool, dry place inside a non-PVC coin holder or sleeve to prevent further oxidation or environmental damage.
