<p>[QUOTE="poker_prof_AA, post: 163471, member: 6698"]When a coin has spots left on it, a REDOX reaction has occured. The silver however appears lower on the REDOX table than pure water so the reaction cannot occur without the aid of electricity, and no I don't have my coin hooked into the wall blasting it with electricity. If the coin is quickly soaked with pure water nothing will happen. If it is soaked for a long time the ions from the **** on the coin <b>may</b> dissolve in the water creating a REDOX reaction which in turn will oxidize the surface of the silver coin. <b>All i want to know is, is there a material that I can use that will not create scratch marks on the coin</b>, I already tried Q-tips but they left tiny hairlike marks when magnified. If anyone can answer this question I would appreciate it. Any help is great.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
