How To NOT Clean Old Coins

Hello  it is 3:08 am in the morning and I could not sleep so I decided to make a post about How to NOT Clean Old coins.

First things first. A lot of older Coins may be very valuable no matter how you acquire them .

Old coins are collectible and sought after by various coin collectors around the world. It can be a fun hobby to some and a horrible one to others. But none the less, they can be very valuable, so it would be wise to inspect strange looking coins you may find from time to time.

Now here is a list of what not to do to a coin once you have found one by either, Metal detecting , coin roll hunting, or just find one on the street corner.

1. do not ever use vinegar to clean a coin. (Trust me, I have done so and ruined many coins doing so. 

2. Do not boil them in hot water.

3. Do not soak them in bleach.

4. Do not put any heat to them.

5. do not scratch it with ANYTHING.

Now these are the things that I have read online before and tried and they DO NOT WORK. please, take it from my personal experience. 

A coin can be more valuable to a collector ,dirty with original dirt, etc on it than if you was to clean it.  always check your dates if you ever are not sure about a certain coin before you give it to the store clerk for the soda drink you Just bought. 

In fact, don't do nothing except store it in a dry safe place until you have done some research of your new found strange looking coin. 

I hope you find this advice helpful and remember it the next time you run across a weird looking object , coin, etc. 

as always , HAPPY HUNTING.
