FYI ... using abrasives on ANY copper coins leaves brush marks and any professional coin dealer will tell you that you damaged the strike plate of the coin. Never use abrasives on any coin. It’s liquid sand paper and it DOES damage the coin and reduces the value. Yes it looks nice and shiny and clean but under a microscope, it will show the abrasive lines and damage to the strike plate. I have been collecting coins since 1975, and I never “polish” them. However, on some coins ( not copper ) I use a professional cleaner and a cotton swab. This removes just the dirt and does not damage the coin. Abrasives leave swirl marks. I have over 5,000 wheat pennies that have patina. A coin dealer will give you a better appraisal on non cleaned coins vs cleaned coins.

Just mix white vinegar and salt in a jar, drop your coins in, leave for 30 mins, rinse with water and voila. Easiest way to do a lot of coins without using abrasive tools. Wear some gloves when you do it as it can cause irritation to skin.

I had an uncle that collected as well, and he swore by using pure acetone in an electronic ring cleaner (it may have actually been a small ultrasonic cleaner). It wouldn't take away the patina or scratch the cents, and it would eat away the oxidation. He showed me the large cents he had cleaned up and they looked great, still nice and chocolatey brown

If you are trying to find coins to fill the spaces in your coin album, and they are common coins, then go ahead. But do not even try to clean something considered a semi-key or key date, or any coin you are unsure of about just how scarce or rare it might be. And absolutely never clean old American copper coins like Colonials, Half Cents, Large Cents, Flying Eagle Cents, and even Indian Cents. Doing so might cut the value of coin way down, versus what you might have gotten if you sold it as is. If you want scarce or rare coins cleaned (commonly called conserving), then send them to NGC's NCS, who specialize in conserving scarce and rare coins that are valuable. They have experts who can examine a coin to determine if it is possible to actually recover the coin, or if it is best to leave it as is. If they return as not recoverable, still, DO NOT do anything to that coin. It is still worth more the way it is, than if you clean it with something that alters the natural surface of the metal. What I mean by that is, the when some things are forcefully removed from the surface of a coin, it damages the natural metal. What you are doing with an abrasive and a toothbrush is exactly that, disturbing the natural metal as it came from the US Mint.

great video well done

That 1944 in that color is worth money. Donut clean them odds what i was told

Cleaning old coins always worth time. Brasso works great!

@@DrewKane I'm talking about the collecting value. Never clean old coins, any value the coin had, aside from face value, is gone.

Will doing this lower the value of a penny, dime, nickle, quarter?

Only if it’s a valuable coin. Not likely on 99.999% of pocketchange in circulation

@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Thanks for replying Danny. It's a 1927 no mint mark. I haven't cleaned it. It isn't scuffed up or scratched or chipped and except for the dark patina it looks pretty good. Maybe a little worn but not bad. The date can be clearly read. It's just dark.

Great Video.

I used regular ketchup on my coins. The end result is like your 1944 coin.

Have you tried using steel wool to remove rust from your rusty coins? I am cleaning a 1944 nickel with it right now!

Looks good, but losing the grade value

Michelle Jackson Grade value yes, but these went from worthless to face value, so it worked out.

Try a taco bell sauce packet or ketchup. You will be amazed. The acid in it will really clean and shine it up.

And when you clean valuable coins, you lose the value. Real coin collectors know not to clean the coins! So that tells me you are not a coin collector! Dumb Dumb !

What product are you using

This is the product used. Again, for cleaning pocket change, not valuable collector coins www.amazon.com/NATURAL-ORANGE-Pumice-Industrial-Cleaner/dp/B000CCOK6Q?keywords=gojo+hand+cleaner&qid=1646411164&sprefix=gojo+hand%2Caps%2C134&sr=8-3&linkCode=ll1&tag=2004047-20&linkId=7d1f3c5d509b1a062c9045785d62476a&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

I've found that vinegar and table salt works pretty good as well.
