I cleaned the 1723 silver coin. It is from Bavarian King Max Emmanuel (1662 - 1726). Cleaned up well and is in very nice condition. A tedious clean up job of picking with a toothpick and short dips in a liquid silver cleaner. Here’s the after and before pictures. Obverse.

Reverse, my light makes the silver look red toned but it really retains a shiny luster.

This is what it looked like before I cleaned it, the reverse side in the picture and the obverse was even worse. Had I not cleaned it, I probably would not of been able to ID it but I had a good idea, LOL! HH, Mike
