<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dayriser, post: 919702, member: 21610&quot;]I don&#039;t want to know about cleaning in general, as I simply wouldn&#039;t do it under normal circumstances, but in this case, I am more curious about the find than the value... Here is the deal -- I picked up a collection this week that included several cups of nickels, wheats, ih&#039;s, and mercury dimes... Some of the wheats were steelies and are now rusties along with everything else in the cups... So far, from the cups have come several semi-key wheats, and a 1916-d mercury... I think there is a 1921 also, but I can&#039;t make it out without cleaning these things up... There are probably 40 or so wartime nickels that were xf to au when they went in the cup, but the whole cup looks like it spent some time submerged under water... My question is, is there any way to just dip the whole lot in something that would work on the rust, grime, and general goo that is on these coins?.. I don&#039;t care if they look cleaned, but obviously I don&#039;t want to use something that will physically destroy the coins, and my ability to tell what they all are with it... </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Regards[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
