I had read it online somewhere and tried it on coins I showed in the first picture and came out with the ones in the second picture that I felt could be rolled and recirculated. </p><p>I would never try to pass this off as real collectible or toned coins, nor would I use them in my collection or the albums I putting together for my grandkids. </p><p><br /></p><p>I posted the information on another forum sometime ago and discovered that it was a well-known Lincoln cent expert who had posted a similar suggestion on his website. </p><p><br /></p><p>I did use a double boiler for the first try, and a plain pot for the second cleaning. It didn&#039;t seem to matter to the coins which one I used. </p><p><br /></p><p>You got to admit it though, the cleaned coins are much more pleasing to the eye than the gunky ones. I never realized cents come in such amazing colors. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>jeankay[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
