      Thanks Ivan49. Medal No 2. The Battle of Chemse sold at a recent auction in Athens for $2,200EU and the silver version sold for $6,000EU. Does not appear the bronze is in near as good of condition. I may have this one graded by PSGS.

      For green corrosion take a look here.

      The man knows what he is talking about, i.e. conservation without damaging patina and the medal.

      Ivan49. I need advice in conservation, grading, and liquidating a very nice collection of pre-WW2 European medals and coins. Proper direction for this endeavor is much needed. Thanks for any knowledge/experience you can share.
    6. IVAN49 IVAN49, 7 years ago
      Medals can be posted here.They can be easily identified and valued.
      Coins are difficult to grade online. There are collectors clubs.
      In regard of conservation, do not try to clean both silver and bronze except for green stuff discussed above.
