<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 1794449, member: 18320&quot;]ALL of this is good to know and understand...I have advocated conservative cleansing, and practice it with growing skill.&nbsp; Beginning with common copper and silver coins having zero numismatic value, and without intent to fool anyone (they&#039;re bullion only, the silver ones) I have cleaned maybe two dozen coins successfully.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Note: I did NOT say completely, nor thoroughly; simply, I was able to remove a <i>portion</i> of the soil, grime, or other obscuring material and return a measure of attractiveness to an otherwise ugly and undesirable item...for <u>myself</u>, not as a prelude to sale or trade.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Practice may not, in this context, make perfect...but it <i>can</i> lead to recovery of appearance.&nbsp; After all, isn&#039;t that what we&#039;re all seeking: great appearance?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
