<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1038377, member: 19065&quot;]The premium over spot is too steep for me to consider for these, regardless of what folks on eBay or elsewhere are willing to spend. I do not &#039;collect&#039; bullion but recognize there may come a time when these coins garner a numismatic premium throughout the market and not just to some folks. This just goes to show that people <i>are</i> willing to pay more for bullion than they are worth to the &#039;bullion investor&#039; of ASEs, which goes along with examples I gave counter-point to in mikenoodle&#039;s recent opinion thread on certified bullion. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now, as for cleaning these, I wouldn&#039;t. Doing so might, after all, hurt their future potential numismatic collectibility. You may end up &#039;damaging&#039; them by trying to clean them even though they may at first look nice to you. So think long and hard about it and read everything people talk about in the threads about how to and when/why to do so or not do so. </p><p><br /></p><p>With that, Acetone and Distilled Water as detailed in many other threads by Doug, following his steps--&gt; carefully.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is also a rather swift acting cleaner you can consider but should be cautious with using (test it on junk silver first!)<a href="http://www.brent-krueger.com/howtoms70.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.brent-krueger.com/howtoms70.html" rel="nofollow"><b>MS-70</b></a></p><p><br /></p><p>The best advice, is that if you want bright clean white looking coins, buy them that way to begin with so you don&#039;t have to fool around with ideas of cleaning anything. This is especially so with ASEs, as there are scads of them for you to buy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
