Care Instructions

Handle coins by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin. Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in an acid-free coin holder or album, to prevent tarnishing and environmental damage. Do not clean unless you are an expert, as improper cleaning can significantly decrease the coin's value.
