cleaning can reduce value, but if theyre worth little or you dont care, theres blue ribbon coin conditioner that works well, also theres olive oil and other household stuff.

Olive oil soak will release the dirt, but it might take weeks or more.? Others talk of using distilled water, which is working really well on an aluminum token I have, but takes weeks too.? In my opinion - just remeve the dirt/crud with the gentle means I have mentioned and leave as is.? ?Others' opinions may vary.? Most importantly, keep finding them!? ?
