It is your right to ruin any coin you wish. Do not expect anything but derision here if you choose to do so.

Geepers ... public announcements at a coin forum that a member intentionally cleaned their coins is going to receive some .... ummmhh ... commentary.

I say it's the OP coins ... and if he chooses as he did to throw his money away from the ill-advised decision to polish them ... well ... it's his coins and his lost investment.

Wishing the best for you 241079 ... let us know in a few years how this silver investment worked for you.

241079... Do you watch The Antiques Roadshow? When someone brings in a piece of antique furniture to have appraised. And the appraisal expert explains that the piece has been refinished, and then the expert invariably says something like... "Too bad, with the original finish it would fetch perhaps in the 20 thousand pound range, but now... perhaps 2 grand."

Same with coins.

Search this coin forum on cleaning AND conservation topics... there are many... Bonne chance!

It quite possibly is but if you give it a polish of any kind, it certainly won't be.
