<p>[QUOTE="Mikjo0, post: 126333, member: 3565"]To give you a serious answer,and bear in mind that you should ONLY do this with coins that have little or no value,buy some Hagerty silver spray in the big blue can and spray some on the softest cloth you can find.Then place the cloth on a hard surface and rub back and forth,repeating until the wet spot becomes black.keep doing this ,using a lot of pressure,changing the area on the cloth and spraying more cleaner on occasionally.This stuff contains jeweler's rouge which is what they use to polish metals used for fine jewelry.After about 10 minutes of this per side,your coin will be shinier than you can imagine.This will totally ruin the value of any coin but it will do the trick better than any other metal polish including Maas or Wenol.The only drawback is that they will re-tarnish after about 6 months so you will have to touch up the job from time to time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
