This belongs in a museum!

If aliens come to visit, I would want this to be the first thing they see from us.

Is there any rust to remove or just patina?
If rust, try to soak it in lemon acid solution(can be bought in grocery in small packs of few grams of powder) , it removes rust nicely. However, try first with one piece , of course

I tested with some old rusty screws and it works...

Some of them have rust, not much, due to use the metal has some small marks and a little bit of rust.

I was searching about the best way to remove. Thanks for the tip.
