<p>[QUOTE="BigAl, post: 698530, member: 20764"]As a rule coins should not be cleaned. There are some exceptions. If the coin has some PVC damage (usually associated with long term plastic flip storage), there are some PVC cleaners that do not affect the originality but remove the PVC. Also, clear ammonia will remove much of the dirt and other contaminants from coin surfaces. Use a Q-tip and apply very light pressure. Wash immediately with much warm water and PAT dry with very soft cloth. Do not rub![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
