<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tradernick, post: 2501113, member: 648&quot;]My answer is always the same.&nbsp; Don&#039;t dip.&nbsp; Don&#039;t clean with soap and water.&nbsp; Don&#039;t do anything but enjoy the coin.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t like the way it looks then sell it or give it away and get one that you do like.&nbsp; NEVER ever attempt to clean or enhance or preserve a coin in any way including (and especially) dipping.&nbsp; It&#039;s true that there are professionals or coin doctors that can remove tarnish/toning using dip but they also screw up a lot of coins.&nbsp; The average person should never do it.&nbsp; Using any kind of chemicals on coins is a no-no.&nbsp; Not to mention there may be a health hazard to breathing in the fumes from EZest and other cleaners.&nbsp; </p><p>Dont&#039; clean coins.&nbsp; Honestly I think NGC should be ashamed of themselves for offering a service like NCS because all it does it encourage everyone to clean their coins.&nbsp; Another case of the almighty dollar being more important than the care of coins.&nbsp; Remember we are only temporary caretakers of these historical items.&nbsp; 100 years from now there&#039;ll still be collectors who want original coins and dipping/cleaning coins is robbing future generations of collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
