    clad ....

    I assume you want to tone copper cents. In which case there's an old thread (or part of one) about that .. somewhere.

    IMHO you don't. Unless you are trying to deceive someone into thinking it's natural toning.

    It really depends upon whether you would like your coin rare, medium rare or some other grade. Like the rest of the hobbyists, to each his own.

    Leave the oven door closed, but turn off the heat when it is no longer soft in the center.

    If it's made like a sugar cookie then you bake st 350 degrees for 12 minutes or until the edges turn brown. If it's a real coin, never.

    Coins are much like cookies. They are much tastier when served uncooked.
