Keep in mind, scratches are nothing more than 'peaks and valley's" in the metal. Working at opposing 45 degree angles to the scratch you want to remove, knocks the "peaks" off.
That is a good point AcesandEights! Unfortunately once I got some of the dirt and first layer of tarnish off, I noticed a really deep set of curved scratches. I'll see if I can't find a picture to point them out.

Focus in the area below the "CHER" in Butcher.


In this one you can see the same scratch strokes above the CHER.


Those were there and I tried to get rid of them but they are really deep.
