So you didn't really get away with it you went through annex annexed is don't really care PCGS and NGC you probably would have been busted

Hurry the hell up !

The way I look at it if it is graded a 67 at one grading company it should have a grade of 67 regardless what grading company grades it I appreciate this video because it has taken the bullshit out of what to use Thanks a millionbrCary

You’re not getting away with anything, dipping a coin is not cleaning it 697 can go right to the PCGS /anacs/ Ngc website and learn about the difference between dipping and Wiping
Comment from : @CoinCapo

By PCGS definition dipping a coin is not considered cleaning unless you do it multiple times
Comment from : @CoinCapo

why does no one EVER mention cleaning with baking soda? i used to clean lots in the early 80's this way dealers dirty secrets at shows was the dealer that got caught doing this in a rest room
Comment from : @RobertStJean-zy8nj

Found it! Crazy stuff 🎉
Comment from : @HouseOndahill-q8w

I do the same method on nice constitutional and no one would EVER know I cleaned them and they look AMAZING
Comment from : @seanreardon7564

New coins not same ones why waste that money
Comment from : @jasonmcclain8632

Very Grateful you did this and took the time I love your curiosity and drive I truly appreciate it Thanks and good luck
Comment from : @HxC_Fragman

for those of you who are thinking of cleaning all their coins remember these were uncirculated coins, so it made sense they were spotless but be warned all graders "will smell a rat" if a worn out 150-year old coin is spotless

mother nature ALWAYS takes back what is hers its only a matter of time
Comment from : @markhellman-pn3hn

Problem is not the cleaning… problem is the grading service which is absolutely useless to anyone buying coins with these slabs… Do NOT waste your $$$ imho If you are paying any $ for bullion that’s slabbed it’s gotta be NGC/PCGS imho Ty for the experiment & video Would love to see similar with a reputable grading co
Comment from : @Just2aguy

15:26 Grading should be done with the naked eye That's how you look at them 99 of the time A coin can be perfect, good, ok, imperfect and bad Keep it simple
Comment from : @bigbotno1

If you are careful and use common sense you will be alright!!!
Comment from : @BryanTaliaferro

5:46 I believe the concern isnt the cotton itself scratching the coin, but particles of dirt of dust, silicon iis/i harder than nickel
Comment from : @nixietubes

Using acetone is not considered "cleaning"
Comment from : @Shadowmaster82311

Cotton swab would not scratch nickel but would scratch soft copper and silver
Comment from : @lannlann

Got awaybut they are proof anyway How much could it matter??
Comment from : @davidweinberg7833

What kind of fabric softener do you use :-j
Comment from : @Frickitall

Maybe they have DEI hires doing the grading now
Comment from : @Frickitall

Use distilled water to rinse them after cleaning, they can detect fluoride from the sink water
Comment from : @RelicRednecks

What grading company, do U use
Comment from : @AngelaPuthoff

Maybe try cleaning some non proof coins and see what happens ?
Comment from : @RichC-on6ue

I like ANACS too! 😀
Comment from : @philhruska5001

CanUTalkanybrSlowerWTF
Comment from : @Greg-p2i

Do you know that if they paid an extra $2 per case the front could be sapphire crystal that wouldnt scratch? Their cases rarely leave the office without scratches on them For 2 cents a case they could come with a peel off film These companies can do what they like to you because they can
Comment from : @joereedsmith1531

Would using a softer material other than a cotton swab make a difference?
Comment from : @navyveteran2024

i found some pennies first thing is cleaned the shit out of them, got sick thinking what i did
Comment from : @frankiebaca1175

Do 1/2 and 1/2
Comment from : @shellyszuch7144

No send in all new coins Don't break them out
Comment from : @scottmonty1828

great coins
Comment from : @charlesadkins7067

Watch on 175 speed You're welcome
Comment from : @ntime2095

The sliminess from the MS70 is because it contains potassium hydroxide, which is an extremely strong base that is basically forming soap from the oils on your skin
Comment from : @gmc9753

The actual grading system is a scam🤣🤣🤣
Comment from : @Ac3230753

Never realized that Kennedy looked so much like Franklin Maybe the acetone did it
Comment from : @The-Armed-Pacifist

I not think those coins worth grading to begin with wouldn't send anything less than 100$ but good adventure in learning ❤ my issue is with black dollars spotted dollars1800s not getting details grading restoration of them
Comment from : @dondesnoo1771

When the grading companies say cleaned, they mean Improperly Cleaned
Comment from : @Chucka10

What do you think about heritage auctions
Comment from : @patriciasamora1074

Awesome experiment!
Comment from : @blue_diamond_gem

Read page 32 of the 9th edition of the Mega Red coin book
Comment from : @tylerkay3

Maybe the stuff coming off has trapped dirt which causes scratches
Comment from : @julane-h2y

I'm excited for you
Comment from : @robertthomason8905

Just goes to show you that grading companies are 💩 brAnd grades mean Zilch
Comment from : @AL95621

I remember reading that PCGS has some kind of sniffer machine that can read the chemical residue on the surface of the coin…so your taking a big risk with them! Save your money! Don’t do it!
Comment from : @ChildrensSongStorytimeCorner

Thank you for sharing this… AWESOME
Comment from : @SteelCityStacker33

What about Gold & Silver or softer metals
Comment from : @frankiejoseph3792

All it takes to scratch a coin with a q-tip is rubbing in a microscopic speck of dust that is harder than the metal…
Comment from : @AB-vc7ox

My mindset is in line with @raymondbrown Finally someone real ,and no bs about itgood on you
Comment from : @john2977

How dirty were they beforehand
Comment from : @john2977

How dirty were they when you started
Comment from : @charlenedenton9128

Keep your coin the way they are graded they are all the same grading company’s
Comment from : @pepicramer8528

Anacs got a bad name due to poor management It's 120 better since they moved to Colorado under the newer management I'm against spending money on grading 90 of coins as its just not worth it But I'm 100 against the extortion pricing at PCGS Buy the coin, not the label on the case
Comment from : @twistedsteelandtigermeat1101

I use only lemon 🍋 juice, white vinegar and bakin' soda
Comment from : @MarkBryan-tw5fq

I wouldn't send any coins clean or not to graders! I would sell as is, like car dealers do, what you see is what you get, you determine the offer!
Comment from : @MarkBryan-tw5fq

Honestly the nickel you cleaned twice i couldn't tell from my view You did a hell of a job!
Comment from : @davycrockett4395

Send in ALL new in PCGS!
Comment from : @markhall1364

yes break them out and resend them to PCGS only if you can afford to do so brother , because sometimes i feel like i got an unfair grading by them , and the information would be priceless with this kind of test on them
Comment from : @Frankyboy77

👏👏 good video Any chance you can send some cleaned BU business strike coins?
Comment from : @upholdthesecond92

The acids you used are not abbrasives like baking soda and do not leave the very obvious details on a coin that harsher methods cause This is very common in the coin industry to dip bad toning or removing glue or dirt stuck to a coin without damaging it and leaving details behindbrbrPlease do not compare Anacs to Pcgs or NGC No dealer will buy an Anacs holder for Anacs grades They will plumb the grade and pay far less Especially if the dealer isnt very good at grading themselves, it can often times be a much lower offer brbrAmerican Numismatic Associations summer seminar, PCGS educational videos here on YouTube can both help dramaticallybrbrGod speed, fellow numismatists
Comment from : @Mga-wt7ct

They Are Detail ! Coins ! !
Comment from : @Larry-wz5kf

Clean Raw Coins Send Them To Ngc And PCGS !
Comment from : @Larry-wz5kf

That's Not A Kennedy Halves !
Comment from : @Larry-wz5kf

How could you While filming this video, know the results of other coins you have cleaned and sent in @7:01 "since I (you) did this video" ?
Comment from : @lshtar777

Buy the coin not the holder
Comment from : @CoinCapo

Could you do this test again with PCGS OR NGC, please?
Comment from : @Chris-ch5nb

that is encouraging! thank you for making this video!
Comment from : @jimmajr9224

Big thanks 4 your 💰&workWill use AnacsbrAccidentally left a penny in pocket, washed clothes-will this be a strike against me?
Comment from : @augeniasestokaite4674

New subscriber here I love this type of stuff
Comment from : @MAGA_Extremist

I dipped a 1936 German silver coin in EZ-EST I sent it in to NGC for grading It came back AU53
Comment from : @Mister_T_from_Erie_P

This is all good stuff, you could water the e-zest down a little bit that may help in grading if it`s getting to the bone of the coin
Comment from : @stephenlewis3879

Thats seriously awesome stuff I just assumed that if you put anything on it theyd be able to tell I heard of a guy getting the restoration from the company (cant remember which) grading it and they graded it details cleaned
Comment from : @AnxiousStacker

I would clean some tarnished/slighty dirty coins that otherwise are in good shape and see how well it gets cleaned and what grade it comes back at! Of course, estimate the grade before cleaning per the grading guidlinesbrTo me ez-est seems the easiest to use However, someone here mentioned it was not so good on copper So between ez-est and MS70 which one do you think cleans all the silver, bronze and copper the easiest? I'm new but learning the hobby! Thanks!
Comment from : @shastina5493

Excellent video! Would be interesting to see what happens with: "ultra-sonic cleaned" as well as a coin cleaned with the "salt" and/or "carbonate soda" (If those don't come back details, something is definitely wrong)
Comment from : @penniesshillings

I think your proof of concept is good enough
Comment from : @rodgriffee3670

ANACS is the only company I use $13 a coin no membership and you get them back in six weeks
Comment from : @stevennelson7635

Great video! Thank you!
Comment from : @backburnerart

Very interesting
Comment from : @kaynef6637

Isn't ezest pronounced "easiest"?
Comment from : @KelvieCarlile-cf8em

This would be more convincing if sent to NGC or PCGS ANACS slabs trade at a large discount It kind of kills the point of the videobrbrFYI, my father used acetone, no rubbing, and his crazy hair came back cleaned (NGC)
Comment from : @sinesaii

Hot acetone in an ultrasonic cleaner
Comment from : @seahawks1185

So which product do you recommend the best
Comment from : @edwardfizette9854

Dude, love your videos That being saidEee-Zee-Est! Every time you say Eee-zest my eye twitches
Comment from : @murrcenare3912

Would be more meaningful if you had sent these all to PCGS I have been using ezest on coins for several submissions to PCGS now and have had no problems The ultimate test would be to crack these out and send to PCGS
