    Best way to get gunk off a coin?

    Is there a way to clean up a penny without harming the value of it, like let it soak in lime juice or salt and vinegar etc...? Ive seen it done but not sure if it hurts the pennies? Im not talking high dollar coins, just everyday circulated lincolns

    Glad you asked before doing what you saw on the internet There's a thread by BadThad, who is one of our members and he created Verdi-Care. Here's the thread http://www.lincolncentforum.com/foru...n-Conservation

    Pure acetone (not fingernail polish remover) has always been my go to thing. But, many of the guys here have used some other products and techniques that they found to be successful. Maybe they will chime in... or you can search threads and find more information.
