My sample of an improvement due to cleaning is shown what I did on the coin below You will notice above picture a deep scratch running across the obverse of the coin from 10:00 to 2:00 near center. Then try to look below the cleaned and re-tone same coin for over a year. I guess on the second picture looked more nicer than the first one before the cleaning. I do not know how would it show in your own perspective and it would be nice to know if I did the right thing on the above coin? Report this Post to the Staff

I suppose deciding on which coins to clean is equally as important. For some reason, I thought the dipping was exclusive to copper cents or copper coated. Report this Post to the Staff
