<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coop, post: 556008, member: 17656&quot;]You might try a method I use on circulated coins first to get the technique down first. I use mineral oil and a extra soft worn our toothbrush. I put a few drops on the coin and brush in different directions rotating the coin to remove debrie from the devices. If it need a second time around I do that. On crusted areas a green thorn will help loosen unwanted material. If you have pieces of sand you might like to soak the coin first, before the bathing with the oil and brush treatment. Sand will scratch the coin so be careful when it comes loose so as not to scratch the fields on your coin. They results are very nice on a one coin at a time basis. Do not try on BU or Proof coins as they will scratch. But on circulated coins with circulation crud on them, I give them a bath with a brush treatment. Here are a few results I&#039;ve achieved.</p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/coop49/Bathed_Cent_-_Before_Cent.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/coop49/HALF_BATH.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/coop49/1908_INDIAN_CENT.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
