So generally I don't recommend cleaning coins but I'm going through my collection preparing things for sale at Auction (I'll post another thread)
And I came across this Barber Quarter, clearly hard to see, as I dug it probably 20 years ago. (Dug like this not tarnished by time)
I used baking Soda and rubbed the coin for maybe 5 minutes both sides...
Opinions ? or is there a better way to clean up these blackened coins ?
Clearly I couldn't get all the black stuff off, it was dug like that, probably because it was sitting next to iron ? Maybe ?
What do you all think ?
