<p>[QUOTE="joecoin, post: 18162, member: 999"]I would say that coating a coin with an inert substance would not be cleaning it as much as it would be protecting it from the outside environment. Not much different than keeping it in a controlled environment, i.e. museum display filled with inert gas. Many early American coppers were coated with laquer. I don't know if it is inert, but I'm sure the idea was to preserve the coin in its original state, not to clean it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
