[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 947576, member: 112"]No, it won't, for two reasons. 1 - tone/color is 100% dependant on a plethora of environmental conditions. And environmental conditions over any specific time period can never be precisely duplicated again. 2 - once harshly cleaned any luster on the coin is destroyed. And without luster previous toning can never be duplicated. Then you also have the issues of the damage to the coin that is caused by the harsh cleaning. As already mentioned, any luster is destroyed. And typically, after harsh cleaning, the coin will be covered with hairlines and fine scratches.
