<< < (2/3) > >>

Mandelbaum:
working on it now :-)

Joe Sermarini:
Those coins are already clean.

SC:
So, out of curiosity why do you feel you have to clean these coins?

Personally I feel that vote coin looked better and probably had a higher value before cleaning than after.

thank you guys for your answers

i have heard about the method involving chemical substances and constant monitoring. it was also explained to me in detail but when i hear sulphuric acid, i always get scared :-)
the coins i always get are pre-cleaned to make them more tasty :-)
the coins are 80% excellent condition. of course, you could sell them as not cleaned, but "not cleaned" always sounds very cheap in my eyes.  i would like to show my results but as my microscope runs on hdmi, i can't show before and after. or i forget to take pictures with my phone :-)  so, there is photo of my last delivery. please don't shout "don't clean" :-) yes, i know, they are already almost perfect

Those desert patinas are stunning. I would pay more for them as they are now rather than cleaning them. If you do want to clean them, don't clean the fields, just clean the high up areas to make the details really shine!
