<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 718132, member: 4552&quot;]You really shouldn&#039;t but if you wanted to make Copper look new there are many ways to do that. </p><p>Naturally one is to use most metal polishes for cars. At many places where they demonstrate auto polishes they use a penny (cent) and it comes out looking new. </p><p>Acetone and other substances similar will do nothing to Copper at all. Yes there are silly stories on the internet about how Copper Coins will vanish if placed in Acetone and water and placed in the Sun. I&#039;ve tried that under numersous conditions but never were able to use the same Sun they did. Didn&#039;t work.</p><p>One method is to go to Walmart Jewlery department. They have been carrying a few different jewlery cleaners. The one in the Silvery container is for Silver but for Copper it will turn the coin to a new coins status. Must be done for a few minutes at most. However, it must be immediately rinsed in a Baking Soda and Distilled water solution to nertalize the jewlery cleaning effects. If not the coin will turn a true reddish color and I don&#039;t mean the Copper Red, but a real Red. </p><p>Another method is if you have or know someone that has an old Lead-Acid battery, using a turkey baster steal a little and place the coin in that for a few minutes. </p><p>The main thing to remember here is that most of these systems will make the coin look new but in reality it is removing a layer of the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
