<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bones-65, post: 8231113, member: 136030&quot;]I was very clear with this method that it was vs a pencil eraser, and I was also clear about not cleaning a valuable coin at ALL!</p><p>If someone is looking at cleaning some coin with a pencil eraser of any kind, the baking soda &amp; dawn is a better option, the puddle of slick dawn and light pressure is a FAR better option than a pencil eraser.</p><p>I never said there was a good way to clean a valuable coin, I&#039;ve seen people use Comet Cleaner, I&#039;ve seen gun cleaner solvent and a brass brush used, rock tumblers, get this, I&#039;ve known people to have their wives save dryer lint and the soak it with salt water and put it and the coins in the tumbler, I&#039;ve seen people soak them in Olive oil for WEEKS and brush them, but I&#039;ve not seen anyone do any of the above to a valuable coin.</p><p>If the coin is one that a person is going to use a pencil eraser on (a worthless coin) then try the baking soda &amp; dawn as a better option.</p><p>If some one is thinking about using steel wool, the pencil eraser is a better option.</p><p>Ol, I forgot this common method, a wire basket and a dish washer cycle.</p><p>But, again we&#039;re not talking about a valuable rare coin even in the OP (original post).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
