    Yes, lots of people have, along with every other imaginable way of ruining a coin.

    You came in a few months ago very earnestly recommending that people use silver polishing cloths on their coins. I thought we cleared this up then. Why are you still pursuing it?

    I'm not sure if we are playing word salad or what. I'm totally confused.

    The context of my post was meant to convey, 'They' would not include the words, 'Properly cleaned.' Sorry for the ambiguity.

    Call it what you will but this stuff and similar Botox rejuvenators are pure poison to numismatics. Sadly, some will always pursue shiny objects however derived.

    I used Nic-a-date just to see how it affected the nickel, and of course to see the date. And I decided it was a good experiment, but I stopped there. I count it as a small investment in learning.

    Phil's Coins, posted: "IF it is for your OWN use and you do not plan to sell it so ANYONE without the disclaimer "CLEANED" attached to the coins fine. Please do not offer something up for sale that you know is not what it appears to be. It is FRAUD. If you think that the coin cannot be detected as cleaned, send it to NGC/PCGS and watch the reply.
    The art of coin collecting is to find something that is truly unique but ORIGINAL."

    I nominate this post for "worst of the day!" News Flash: I estimate that just about 97% of vintage coins in slabs or raw have been cleaned at one time. That makes a lot of folks (including me) crooks! I'll bet if you are a regular buyer at large coin shows over the last forty years, there is a pretty good chance you've purchased a coin I've personally cleaned. :smuggrin:

    Just a side thought - I wonder how this product would work on copper facia metal drip edge around the roof? Or as a patina agent? And what would be the long term effect to the metal? I've always been under the impression that Patina would accelerate deterioration, this is why it turns green. But not really sure.

    Nope, I don't. Doing so would be superfluous because everybody that knows anything about coins already knows it. And if they don't, then they need to buy more books and read them because it's in a whole lot of them ;)

    I used to build homes for the very rich and the very, very rich. And we'd put copper drip edge, copper gutters and downspouts, even copper roofs on them. And then we'd get paid extra to make all that copper get streaks of green "patina" all over it - which we gladly did ;)

    And you wanna take it off ? :confused: o_O Chocolate and vanilla ah reckon.

    But the question remains, would MS70 take it off ? Yup, pretty dang sure it would. And come to think of it, it might not be bad idea for a new business ! :woot: Why we could make all that copper turn all sorts of pretty colors - not just plain of green anymore !!!

    Gotta hand it ya, it's pure genius ! ;)
