<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 674593, member: 112&quot;]Just because I haven&#039;t tried it myself doesn&#039;t mean that I haven&#039;t seen the results a thousand times. Or know of a thousand others who have tried it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tom, people have been coming to this forum and discussing the myriad methods of cleaning coins for the past 7 years - I have read every single one of them. Then there were all the forums I was involved in before that time, during that time, and the past 49 years of my life that I have talked to, discussed, and examined coins that have been cleaned by just about every method you think of. I was first told by my grandfather in 1960 about the dangers of cleaning coins. It&#039;s never stopped since then.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, if you paid closer attention, read more threads, or had been around here a lot longer, you would have seen first hand the numerous, and I mean numerous times, that I have given very detailed instructions for the non harmful methods of cleaning that I am aware of and know to work.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, there are only 2 that I know of. Using distilled water is one, using acetone (only on some coins) is the second.</p><p><br /></p><p>Pretty much every other method that I have ever seen <b>IS</b> harmful, or it doesn&#039;t work. So of course, I recommend against those.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now if you think you know of a method that is not harmful, be my guest - tell us all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
