<p>[QUOTE=&quot;huntsman53, post: 567888, member: 1242&quot;]That is the way I learned as well! I also found out that it seems to react to environmental stuff that collects on some Copper/Bronze coins over time and will turn them to some really wild looking colors. I used it on a 1909-P VDB Cent that was so darkly toned that you almost couldn&#039;t tell what it was...even with a Gem Loupe. I figured that I could not make the coin any worse thatn it already was but sheeesh was I wrong. After dipping the coin in the Jewelry Cleaner, it had a wild puple...blue...red and green look to it. I then gave it a soak in warm soapy water (dishwashing liquid), rinsed it thoroughly, dried it and then gave it another dip in the Jewelry Cleaner. Well, now the coin is a dull Olive Green and I have no idea how to get it back to a more original color as minted without doing even more damage.</p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: Red">Another warning that everyone should be aware of is this: The Silver Jewelry Cleaner is only good for cleaning approximately 20 coins before it should be replaced. Once a Calcium looking residue accumulates across the entire bottom of the Wash Tub (the container itself), then the Cleaner is pretty much trash and will even do harm to Silver coins if used beyond this point (i.e. it will remove any Luster or finish from the coin and give it the appearance that it was cleaned with acid or a rough abrasive).</span></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Frank[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
