<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikey Zee, post: 2111051, member: 72818&quot;]I found that the easiest and &#039;safest&#039; way is to simply boil quite a few in distilled water and use a rough cloth to dry and &#039;clean&#039; them...and then if you can tell the condition (high-grade or &#039;slugs&#039;) make a decision to use a hard nylon brush or soft wire brush carefully on them after boiling once again....and then let them soak for a long while and then cloth dry/clean them once again...</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, there are numerous ways to clean them, but most require a one at a time process (electrolysis) and many people think less is more when it comes to cleaning even ancient coins...You don&#039;t want to remove significant metal layers and you probably want to retain some evidence of centuries of ageing--let alone that terrific varied patina all coins accumulate, especially non=precious metal types..[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
