I love getting new batches of ancients to clean up and attribute... never know what you'll find...
Amazed at how much time is spent on each coin that way.

Whats the coin made of?
Is there an email I can use to send you a coin that I can't figure out what it says? The coin is in great condition I just can't read what it says. Thanks
Post it on Facebook groups.. they will tell you what it says
you did start off with a pretty fine coin and with really easy to clean dirt on it. I remember digging up WW1 bullet cases and artillery shells a couple of years back - copper, bronze and brass stuff. And it took ages for me to clean those to the point where I could make out marking and stuff - soaking, brushing, scraping the hell out of them, even having to resort to dental tools.
No so much to gain from this vid - but you did say it was an easy how to, not an in-depth one...
you would be absolutely shocked how effective lemon juice is. i thought lemon juice would suck compared to vinegar or baking soda. lemon juice was by the most effective cleaner of coins i have ever seen. it was actually shocking that lemon juice works so well being an organic liquid
@@AlexPerazaTV Roman coins don't have rust
@@alopam they have a blue exterior from centuries of accumulation, that gets easily removed by lemon juice (it's actually mind boggling). also once you get deeper you might find rust some on bronze coins, which also gets demolished.
you still assuming lemon juice isn't as good as industrial cleaners. trust me i strongly believed the same. until i finally tried it. it is insane how much more effective it was compared to vinegar for example.
tell me you havent tried a lemon juice bath for your coins (for 48+ hours), without telling me you haven't tried a lemon juice bath
@@AlexPerazaTV I'm still puzzled as to whether you're a lemon juice dealer or an undercover policeman trying to entrap me into ruining some coins with lemon juice :))
That "blue exterior" is called "patina" and dissolving it basically renders the coin worthless - or so will have you believe almost every antique specialist.
Anyway, my point was (I guess - since it was ages ago when I wrote my comment) that this supposed "proper" way to clean a coin (or bronze object) was only suitable in some instances.
Fact is, I once ran into a shepherd who had found an old greek or roman coin and cleaned it using a brass brush. Which seemed like the proper way to do it - to him.
So I guess it's - to each, his own!, dear robot :))
@@alopam everyone in your mind must be selling something
sometimes someone just has an opinion that is different.
brass brush can work and so can brasso metal cleaner. vinegar did work a little bit. but lemon juice was the best.
actually looking back at my reply it was because i was trying to help you save hours of painstaking work because of a discovery i made and was sharing my discovery with you.
Use blackthorn or Horthorn thorns to clean and clear shoe wax
Your channel and your recordings delight me, I watch them regularly and I have a channel about coins, so any new experience is welcome, thank you and best regards.
How do you preserve the coin? Preserve from getting coroded again?
As long as your house isnt a cave, you should be fine just leaving it in some coin holder
Thank for your years of experience kid ;)
Can ms 70 reamove patina?
Its going to take me 80 years to finish cleaning my coins
Excellent. Thank you.
Cooool!food to know
Can't hear what you're saying because of the 'background' music that is in the foreground.
Awesome!👍 new subs here!
Hello,
Recently I have acquired few old world war zinc coins. They are very dirty with a lot of cement like thing covering the entire coin.
Please guide as to how should I get rid of it. Zinc coins!
leave them how they are.
Great Video! Thank you!
Is there anything other than ms70 that I can use
Levion Heigre olive oil
For how long
@@levionheigre8339 same method shown here
Thanks for a great video
Magnifique!!
Very Cool! 👍
Is this a bronze or silvercoins?
These are bronze coins. It works for all types of bronzes. Silver and gold are usually cleaned up with proof-grade acetone.
Nice thx for the info
One of my ancestors.
Other coin restorers I have watched on youtube do not use vaseline as it is water based. It can actually induce corrosion ....
Vaseline is a petroleum product, a mixture of hydrocarbons which are rather excellent at repelling water. This is why people use it for chapped lips, it seals moisture in, preventing moisture from evaporating. It still shouldn't be used on coins as it can cause some problems but these are not related to moisture, that is unless moisture penetrates the Vaseline as it will then become trapped between the coating and the coins surfaces.
Water is fine for ancient coins, Most people use distilled water but even tap water is usually fine for cleaning other than soaking, as tap water contains minerals that if the coin soaks in (it would literally take weeks or months) can start to erode details on the coin
I bought ms70. It seems pretty toxic. Should I wear gloves? I am afraid to get it on my hands
Kyle Knapp it’s not toxic. Just don’t swallow it lol. It’s olive oil based.
@@coindoctor5035 ok thanks!
Why not a chainsaw ? use rather a Zeiss Stemi 305
Great.
the stuff is olive oil based you say. Olive oil in itself is very bad for coins. It contains acid which will damage the coin in the long run and is difficult to remove. You can use Vaseline, but it must be acid-free. This masks the coin as a dust magnet.
It is better to clean the coin thoroughly first. Then place the coin in demineralized water for a few days. Finally, preserve the coin with Microcrystalline Wax or paraloid b72. This gives a protective colorless hard layer and the process is reversible.
excellent work!
Very nice to bad the coins that im getting from amazon are locked tight in a little plastic pocket
I have one
Music was too loud to hear what you were saying. 👍
No it wasn’t
@@coindoctor5035 The music was too loud. Very quite or no music otherwise the music is competing with your voice. A mistake easily made. Good info but take advice from people.
@@coindoctor5035 Yes, the music should've been quieter. Great vid otherwise!
Палочкой поковырял, и вся грязь отпала, и микро рельеф появился? Ну-ну.
No, no ,no , ...oh god noo
Coin is thick and cover init
Super rare
Just remember, Vaseline is water based - so it could lead to issues with corrosion spots.
It absolutely is not water based....its a petroleum wax essentially.
This is amateur work. Expert numismatists and museums would never recommend such a brutal treatment. I am glad you ruined a coin that is not scarce or valuable. First time I see this use of vaseline and I must say the patina doesn’t look natural at all. Please, read about ancient coins conservation.
He didn't claim to be a professional. You should try to use a little more tact in your communication. Do you have another RUclips account? I'd love to see your videos on this subject.
@@cv600rr Oliver is right. You are not supposed to scrub or apply any abrasive things on your coin. It will wear the coin down quicker, the correct way is to use a hypersonic cleaner.
@@osirisvega4706 I didn't disagree with him. I just said he should try to use some tact.
Distilled water and painstaking dirt removal are required. Renaissance wax is far superior to Vaseline once the coin is 100% dry.
They are more brutal. They clean with dental picks😂
That's not a toothpick. It's a piece of bamboo
You just destroyed a 1700 yr old coin what you are doing is vandalism pure and simple. You have zero knowledge of how to clean and look after coins. Maybe give it a rinse in distilled water first no need for that dramatic scraping, olive oil will go rancid and you will have a smelly damaged coin. All that coin actually needed was a rinse and dry. Massive dislike.
Nope, that's not the proper way at all.
...and the value dropped from 10$ to 2$.
Olle Salomonsson ancient coins are not affected by cleaning. If you collect these coins you would know that collectors want coins that are removed of dirt and bronze disease rather than a dirt-packed coin that has zero numismatic value.
@@coindoctor5035 Some people like them with minimal dirt removal cleaning. You should have stopped this restauration before applying the toxic solution and the vaseline (terrible ideas). Please, read on the subject.
@@olivierbellavance1962 Yeah, not all of us care about its worth. Some of us collect these coins to restore and capture a semblance of its original beauty, not sell on ebay or vcoins. It's not all about money! Pun intended.
@@comteroi9219 I never talked about selling coins… I believe that you must preserve in the right way history. That’s my whole point here.
@@olivierbellavance1962 Yeah, Vaseline is water based - not good, as it could lead to corrosion in the future.
never use Vaseline on your roman coins, Because Vaseline is a water base product, Which can cause the coins patina to go green.
