If you already knew how to properly clean coins, you wouldn't be asking whether you should in the first place That's why the answer is always going to be no because you shouldn't clean coins if you don't know what you are doing, and if you knew what you were doing you wouldn't be asking in the first place Comment from : @kingjoe3rd

In this era of COVID etc I most of the time dip an old soft toothbrush in rubbing alcohol and “sterilize” the coin, which does remove some dirt etc brightens a bit and pat dry Comment from : @timcantlin8782

THANK YOU x 1,000!!!brI have been trying to find the answer to this!!!!brSo…to be clear: If I use CONNOISSEURS JEWELRY WIPES to wipe the junk and shine it up a bit…would I be deceptive not to disclose that in a sale listing? Should I post a before and after to be above board?brI donated some money, I hope you can get that grading software up soon! Comment from : @michelemahone

I have 13, 1964 Kennedys I cleaned two coins with a diluted weimans silver polishing wipe (mild detergent for silver) followed by water rinse and pat dry with soft cloth That was before I heard not to clean them I have no idea if any are rare or uncirculated They were in my Kennedy half dollar bank for 60 years, a gift from grandfather for the year I was born Comment from : @patriciagiles5833

Thanks for the advice, if a person chose acetone only would adding it to a micro vibration device (like a jewelry cleaner) help the acetone be more affective? I have seen some suggestions of acetone and cotton ball Understanding your disclaimer of responsibility what are your thoughts? Thanks in advance! Comment from : @MeekSith777

There is grunge, rust,, is unsightly to the beauty of of a good coin, and typically this should be removed On the other hand there is a coin that with nice patina and should be left as is Let the buyer decide whether to clean it or not, and to whatever degree Comment from : @Davewutsup

Thank you for this info I've tried to find good information but it seems the knee-jerk reaction by everyone is DON'T DO IT!!! But as you're referring to here there are different "levels" to cleaning and that word means something different to everyone My main interest is removing the finger dirt/grime from handling coins to expose what's beneath it, and to help preserve the surface because you DON'T know what's in that grime It could be slowly discoloring/eating away at the surface I for one would never want to seal up a coin with some chemical/substance still on the surface I don't know if I'd want to brighten or alter the natural luster/tarnish of a coin, but I do want to remove debris from the surface that shouldn't be there or isn't part of that coin All without people yelling about it lol Comment from : @LSFprepper

I have a bunch of Indian nickles that had black spots I got them off by using my fingers to rub them with linseed oil and a paper towel Pretty sure the coins were not damaged Comment from : @threeleggedman

A Person who cleans coins is an Idiot brbrUncleaned coins have the cartwheel effect , a Cleaned coin can Loose 90 of it's Value brAny Dollar Coins have Numismatic value over Change like Halves and Quarters brYou as a Human need to Learn at Least the Last 200 Years of Collecting coins and you will Understand Why cleaning a coin is something you should Have your "Hands Chopped 0ff" "Hands Chopped 0ff" for Doing !

I feel like I shouldn't even bother cleaning any coin after this videobut I can't restrain myself from putting my coin under a buffing wheel Comment from : @tsukasaknoell1812

I probably wouldn't touch coins as I know messing with them does affect the value I'm hamhanded with that kind of stuff, sure to leave scratches and stuffbrbrHowever the question I'd have is on brass tokens I have some from an old arcade Is cleaning brass tokens as damaging as cleaning nickel/copper currency? I'm not sure if brass has a better surface that allows for some kind of chemical cleaning They are very sturdy though I might just leave them but I really would love to see what a few of these look like cleaned up like they were newer Comment from : @Bonzi_Buddy

What about steel pennies? You mentioned copper is a no go with 2 mentioned acceptable, but trial at owners risk, cleaners ;) And any thoughts on steam?

Some coins can be cleaned Never clean a toned coin Comment from : @danieldevite668

I would avoid toothpaste at all costs Most of it is abrasive As someone who regularly polishes silver (flatware and hollowware), toothpaste is highly likely to leave scratches and damage the surface, especially if it’s whitening Comment from : @evilsharkey8954
