I put the small coil on her and I was tickling her

[Truth]

I took a small coil on why I am underneath these trees branches that go to the ground is because one of the come summer those leaves and everything else you cannot get in there. I’ll pull the coin I don’t know what it is I poured water on it but I don’t wanna ruin it and the date says 1760 if anybody has some clues while it’s dirty I’d love to hear it if not I’m gonna clean it up. Even now I have to ask what’s the best way she’ll clean the silver thank you

The question is do I leave that patina or do I get some of that silver showing?

Hold on I’m telling you I keep looking at it myself that’s my oldest reales Now the question is do I leave it alone or bring out the silver. Learning my lessons about mistakes I have ruined many of: but this one seems like it would be easy. What do I do

If it is silver it will be hard to ruin it using lemon juice or light electrolysis. The coin really has no significant value so you wouldn't be reducing the value if you experiment with cleaning it. The question really is do you want it to stay like it is now or would you prefer it to be cleaned and silver? In my opinion the black patina tells a story and gives it character so I'd leave it. It's your coin now so it's your decision.
