v nickle.webp how should I handle this or should I just leave it alone I know not much value but its for my collection of found stuff
 

No, I wouldn’t do that. It is hard to do much of anything to a nickel without destroying it. If there is a lot of gunk you can try to get it off with a toothpick . I like the green patina on your and details are visible so I would just leave it as it is.
 

I agree with SusanMn. I would not do electrolysis on it. I soak my coppers and nickels in Olive Oil for a week. It helps bring out the detail, and I've never had a problem with this method. (I've been doing it for over 30 years).
 

IMHO:
Leave the coin alone! :icon_thumleft:
