What is and how effective is Coin Dip?

[MUD(S.W.A.T)]

Hi everyone,

First I would like to say NEVER CLEAN A COIN YOU THINK IS VALUABLE!
(If the coin is overwhelmingly dirty just rinse it off good.)

Coin dip is a liquid you dip coins in and they come clean with little or no scrubbing.

Now I would like to talk about E-Z-EST? Super Coin Cleaner. Anyone know about this coin cleaner? I found it on E-bay I want to post a picture but I don't want to get in trouble for copying someones picture. It says it cleans gold, silver, copper ext. I wonder how effective it is and if it is top of the line stuff?? Any other kinds of coin dip you guys know about that works please post them. Please tell how effective the stuff is too.

Thanks all and HH!!

Mud,

Let me start off first by saying I have never used a coin dip, and as someone whos got into metal detecting because I am a coin collector, I would have to recommend against cleaning any kind of coin. Even a coin worth a little over face value becomes a coin worth only face value to a true coin collector.

Now, that aside, if you are interested in purchasing a coin dip, there is coin dealer out in your neck of the woods (not sure where Ithaca is, other then its west of me in Cohoes) names Big "E" Coins and Stamps. Last I knew, he carried all sorts of cleaning supplies. Might be worth a phone call. Sorry, don't have the number.
