<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2385291, member: 24314&quot;]Let John add to this but I&#039;m having old experiments come back to mind:&nbsp; There is only one way to make a polished coin &quot;presentable&quot; and that is to roughen the surface down through the polish.&nbsp; Old timer&#039;s would carry the coin around in their pocket with a bunch of silver and nickel coins.&nbsp; Lots of worn out pockets I&#039;ve been told.&nbsp; Long ago, I used a gem tumbler.&nbsp; You can achieve all sorts of finishes depending on the material you use to tumble the coin.&nbsp; Lapidary and some gun shops have them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have not played with a polished coin in twenty plus years though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
