      If it is a valuable coin that has a lot of dirt and grime you probably shouldn’t clean as you might damage it. If there is no way to tell then go ahead but make sure you do your own research on proper technique.
      I know I’m late but I hope this helps a little.

    At 02:28 the left 'wheat ear' of the Lincoln Cent can be seen along the top edge. As you turn the coin, the general hump of Lincoln's shoulder can barely be discerned and about the same for Abe's head as you point out from 04:05 onward.
    The 1910 was a remarkable find in that condition.

    • @QuinsCoins
      @QuinsCoins  3 года назад +3

      Yeah I thought I could see a wheat ear on it too, but since the coin was already toasted, I figured why not try and get a date off of it. It didn't go so well though...

    I find that you need to let the coin soak for an hour or more to get good results.It also works on steel pennies.

  • @susanpayne6107
    @susanpayne6107 6 лет назад +22

    I use olive oil and patience. It takes a long time but leaves the penny intact. When I say long time I mean months. Get a little Tupperware container with lid and pour a generous amount of olive oil in there, cover, check and shake it once a month till the olive oil is so gross you need to change it. Check coin and repeat if necessary.

    • @QuinsCoins
      @QuinsCoins  6 лет назад +1

      Wow that's a lot of patience! I know lemon juice isn't a great method...I was just using what I had at the time. I knew the coin was beyond saving anyway haha

    You killed it. One this crusty is better qualified for electrolysis. I only use lemon juice to bring out the guilt in old dug buttons. With any of these cleaning methods the key is to check the coin/relic as often as possible. Too many times have I seen people cook them to death while cleaning.

    interesting info. After my friend got cancer from drinking to much coke and after he died I never drank coke again but it sure shines up coins very well and definitely works but I have coins that are so old that I can not see any bit of a date and only about two letters slightly visible on the coins and they look more like metal discs with nothing to see on them so I'm afraid to try clean them but if there is any tricks or advice on how to see the date on a coin, help be appreciated

  • @jewoody8096
    @jewoody8096 6 лет назад +1

    Please do not use lemon on your coins. Its acidic & not recommended for using on coins. Cleaning (or trying to clean) your coins will reduce the value of your coins. You also risk the chance of not being able to get your coins certified at all.
    Note: Grading & certification are 2 different things.

    BAD IDEA1 i had a 1970 penny that i dug up while gardening. it also was under a layer of volcanic ash from mt saint helen's volcano in 1980. i put it in olive oil and it took months but cleaned up nicely. i had another penny like that and saw a video about cleaning. i added a cou[ple drops of lemon juice to the olive oil. it stripped the finish right off the coin, a copper one, and ruined it completely. if the penny was a 1909, it still would have been ruined. the original finish is important to collectors. OLIVE OIL....

    Hey Quin. I'm also a metal detectorist. My favorite way to clean up older copper coins is to toothpick it. Then wipe it with your thumb. I've had a lot of success with it. Some of my crustiest and toastiest coins coins have turned out great. You can repeat the process multiple times for the best result.

    @oliviagundersen3467 Год назад

    Toilet bowl cleaner works really fast and really well but I suggest to dilute it in water bcuz all my pennies turned a really strange pink color which probably destroyed any value they might have had . I have not tried it diluted yet but I imagine that it would work fine and be less I guess damaging might be the word. Just not pink. I don't know if there is a way to bring back the original color. Maybe if I leave thmin water for a day or something. I have to look into that. However, it definitely removes all the crust, dirt, green tarnish, erosion etc. Of course it does not remove holes that is caused by the metal eroding but it cleans them very fast.
