<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mountain Man, post: 24557187, member: 94733&quot;]Kristine, when it comes to &quot;cleaning&quot; a coin, you can get a hundred different responses, but anything you do to alter the surface of the coin, can being down the value. If the coin is only worth a few cents, then go for it. Maybe practice on coins in similar condition, that you know have no collectors value, and learn from them.</p><p>Acetone will generally take off the smudge on the surface and not damage the coin, but I have heard some say that copper can turn an undesirable color, while others say it doesn&#039;t happen. Here again, practicing and experimenting with uncollectible coins will provide you with better schooling than most.</p><p>Don&#039;t forget to take your loop to the coin show, and of course keep CT on speed dial if you need help. LOL</p><p>Be good, and have fun.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
