are you asking about cleaning the folders or cleaning the coins? cleaning coins usually lowers their value

Cleaning coins no. Younmy want to use pure acetone on LWCs if they are green/black/gummy, rinse with distilled water, not tap. Cleaning folder isn't recommended, adding moisture to paper may coin coins to discolor. Folders are OK to start with, but change up to see through albums later, will preserve coins better!

That's a big no no! Don't ever coin coins as the value drops. It's better to keep them in the original condition it was in.

And pure acetone, washed with pure water. Otherwise, clean nothing.

Mr. Frog, you want him to clean those coins?

Please don't, it will lower the value of the coins.

If you feel you need to clean them, follow Follow Bad Thad's polarity ladder.

Other than that, it is best to leave them alone.
