<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 765095, member: 112&quot;]Unless you get lucky enough to attempt removal when the whatever is fresh, meaning no more than a day or two old, you&#039;re wasting your time to attempt removal as it will not come off with anything less a commercial coin dip.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Personally I don&#039;t and never have. The most I have ever done was to remove dust with air as I have described. And that only a very few times on coins bought direct from the mint in almost 50 years of collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now you&#039;re probably gonna ask why not ? It&#039;s simple, I only bought coins that didn&#039;t need any preparation for storage. I only bought coins that I was completely happy with just as they were.</p><p><br /></p><p>To me, that is the real secret of coin collecting. If you have even the slightest inkling that a coin you are considering buying needs any improvement - then don&#039;t buy it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
