You’ve ruined them 😢 also vinegar and salt does not make hydrochloric acid, it makes sodium acetate There are much better ways to restore copper without stripping the patina Soak in olive or mineral oil for a week, up to 6 months Or heat some hydrogen peroxide and soak for just a few minutes Making a bright coin does not make it valuable

As a numismatist, you ruined any value those coins had

I wouldn't recommend cleaning any old coin that has a value to it!

It does work great but you better not let it soak for to long lol I am to scared now I do it the hard way with a hundred tooth pick s lol

Yes I learned of this a long time ago but I must say be careful you can ruin your coins in seconds it works great on any eroded metal even iron I ruined a $10 thousand dollar token doing this I simply had to go pee so bad I couldn’t take it I thought what s a few minutes well let me tell you owe it cleaned very well so we’ll all the writing was completely gone I am still sick to this day it was so rare I only seen one other year s ago on heritage auction site and you know they don’t sell junk lol unfortunately I wasn’t a member to see what was the final bid but I am in the thousands I I remember it was 200 years old a celebration of Cleveland Ohio I guess to this day sometime in July they have a huge gathering

I guess if you've dug it up and it is not worth anything this would work to get the gunk off But check the year first for rare dates If you have a better date do not do this as it will lower value Old circulated condition copper should not look clean If you have a bright blonde copper look you've gone way too far

I've been selling my old coins from metal detecting for years, I never cleaned them and didn't get much for them I did clean a few to see if it was true you make more with cleaned coins, and yes your right making double the money or more now, cool trick
Comment from : @WattsElectronics

Yes, this works great and now can sell my coins for more, I knew there had to be a way to clean these with out damaging them Thanks
Comment from : @victormarianetti2083

Good video :)

Very useful information thanks
Comment from : @goldseaoutdoors4708

as long as you limit your cleaning to bent or damaged stuff you dig up There are a number of scarcer dates in most coin series that are worth serious money, and any kind of cleaning will destroy the value In the case of Indian cents, the 1877 is worth hundreds of dollars even in worn condition The 1908 and 1909 are worth some good money too

I tried this method and let me tell you it works great, THANKS FOR THIS

I cleaned a 1903 Indian head; it took on that golden hue you speak I recently fund an 1889 and after I cleaned the decades of crud off it, it came out a beautiful green I am torn as to whether to clean the green off it

I was using vinegar and salt mixture when I was young kid around 12as i got older never liked cleaned coinsI like the natural the bestbrNow-a-days when i absolutely have to clean coppers and dress them up for a little better valuei do clean them with straight olive oil and maybe baking soda (rub with my fingers) on the real bad ones to smooth them outbut i stop long before i'm down to the bare copperI have to keep some of the natural patina and oils on them Bare copper cleaned coins are unloved by numismatic peoplebut you can reverse things by adding oils to themfrom your nose is best and leave them outside (in direct sun and rain) bake them on each side for 1 weekturning themand adding your nose and finger oils to them You actually can bring back the nice uniform patina on those cleaned coins in a about a yearwell enough that you can fool even the most seasoned numismatic eye
