BUT Except as a "curiosity" thing the coin you selected to test on is NOT a good subject. Why? It's bi-metal (copper and zinc). There are VERY few clad coins that merit cleaning. Most coins that should be considered for cleaning are higher valued and are alloyed (silver, copper & nickel based). Find yourself some inexpensive copper Lincoln's and do your testing on them. The results you got from your clad Lincoln test will have little application to alloyed coins. Report this Post to the Staff

Personally, I would have skipped acetone and went directly to VC. If you're going to use a brush, do it while the coin is under VC. It will provide good lubrication which will help to avoid scratching. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
