<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 132033, member: 4552"]I really think we need a separate forum for cleaning coins. That subject is repeated just to frequently. However, for you cleaning problem, since you don't care about the coins that much, just go to Walmart. Go to the jewlry department and buy a jar of jewlry cleaner. Tarn-X will also work and some Walmarts will sell you Tarn-X as the jewlry cleaner. Put the coins in there for several hours, rince with distilled water, blot dry with a napkin. There are tons of other methods also. Put the coins in a pan, add water, bleach, lemon juice and boil. Also, ammonia will help but don't put that in the same pan with bleach. A fast dip in battery acid works but not realy good for your fingers. My favorite is plain old baking soda and water solution and gently rub. The most important thing is to always rinse your finished product in distilled water. Good luck and let us know what you ended up doing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
