<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1628929, member: 26302&quot;]I just disagree and brag about how many coins I have cleaned. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I don&#039;t get too mad, since more modern coins have been ruined by &quot;cleaning&quot; than probably any other method. So I just let them repeat their &quot;do not clean&quot; mantra. I clean modern coins too, but know how.</p><p><br /></p><p>Op, if you wish to try to clean it, get some coin dip and distilled water. Mix 1 part dip and 4 parts water and put the coin in there a few seconds, take out, put in distilled water. After a soak in the water take it out and pat dry with a soft cloth. If that didn&#039;t do it, try it with higher concentrations of dip to water ratios. If you prefer, you can do this on modern coins first to learn how to do it and not &quot;practice&quot; on this coin. Go to a coin shop and find a really toned piece of junk silver to practice on.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and don&#039;t tell any modern collectors what you are doing, they will get upset. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Btw OP, I don&#039;t really consider the toning on this that bad. You may wish to leave it alone anyway. Its mottled right now, but over time it should even out. Put it in a manila envelope for storage if you want to speed it up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
