Not Really Cleaning a Coin - But Almost

<p>[QUOTE="halford@thework, post: 2829957, member: 15460"]Gentlemen/Ladies: I have a lot of cheap foreign coins (the type you buy on eBay by the pound) which I am going to use for craft projects for my grand children. They have no numismatic value (and my grand kids won't care) so I want to clean them as cheaply and easily as possible. The copper coins are no problem, nor are the shiny silver looking coins. My concern is the coins which appear to be brass (probably some alloy). I can clean them (make them shiny) with Brasso or a Dreml, but I am seeking some less time consuming way to brighten them. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Again, there is no numismatic value to these coins, they are common, current date, coins, mostly from Europe and the Middle East, I just want to make them shiny for projects for the kids. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
