<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dex57, post: 470706, member: 16378&quot;]Your post makes me wonder what a citrus cleaner would do-a product like &quot;GooGone&quot;.</p><p>This stuff take sticker and tape residue off without scrubbing, and rinses off.</p><p>It will remove residue from cardboard packaging without damage if done carefully-</p><p>Not sure what it will do to silver.</p><p>Next time I get a chance I will try it on a silver cull-I have some with holes drilled, bent, these would be good for a test.</p><p>I am not suggesting you clean ANY coin....but I personally would rather have a nice looking silver dollar than one with tape and crud on it. Were the coin of higher value then a conservator would be in order. Might be a good one to clean and give to a young collector for study, mark it &#039;cleaned&#039; on the 2x2. Certainly don&#039;t buy a problem coin and hope to clean it....silk purses/sows ears and all that.</p><p>I once removed paint from a Canadian silver dollar by carrying it with my change for a year...the paint flaked off and the coin was uniformly worn as it naturally clinked around in my pocket with the other ones...it was circulated before it got paint on it so it looked very natural after my &quot;treatment&quot;....again, however-not a high value coin to begin with. Might work in this case too-just &quot;circulate&quot; it some more!</p><p>Sure not likely you will spend it by accident, as big and heavy as they are!</p><p>good luck</p><p>Looks like someone else considered GooGone-sorry to repeat, not used to this forum yet...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
