Thanks madspec, is that something that is readily available or only found in coin shops (don't have too many close to me)?

I enjoy the baking soda + aluminum foil technique on blackened silver.

Make a small bowl from aluminum foil.
Put the coin on the bottom of the bowl.
Boil a few cups of some water on the stove.
Dump some baking soda in the water, mix.
Pour the water and soda onto the coin and wait for about 10 mins.

See if the black the comes off with a little bit of rubbing with a cotton swab.

This is the result from the baking soda, which turned out pretty good

ok tell me if its a stupid question. Does cleaning a coin with that baking soda mixture or acetone greatly lower a coins value?
