I really appreciated the final zoomed analysis at the end. It clearly showcases how this technique employs minimal damage to the coins. I support both viewpoints when it comes to cleaning Constitutional silver (i.e., cleaners and purists), but if you're going to use a cleaning method this is easily one of the BEST I've seen online to date. Cheers!

When I first saw he was using SS shot I was horrified. However after the cleaning I was absolutely blown away. This is how I want my junk silver to look. It’s a way of bringing back to life manky old coins that are of actual value. When I get back to the US I’ll be buying more 40 and 90 coins and cleaning them this way. Thanks brother from Andy in the UK.

did you ever try to smooth out a worn silver bar with a few dings in it using this method? I was sold a "NEW" bar that turned out to be real silver but looks like somebody dropped it on hard asphalt a couple times. Silver is silver but i was looking for a way to minimize the dings.

Paranoid, There doesn't need to be much logic involved in this process. The only bit of logic needed is to look through the stack for collectables before cleaning. The rest are melt value and making them pretty or keeping them grungy is just personal preference and it doesn't matter.

I actually prefer my constitutional junk silver toned. The more toned the better. I have a roll of 90% percent silver Washington quarters that all have major grease and grime on the outside. I want to keep the toning for sure, but want to get the grime and grease off the outside. I'll probably just use hot water and Dawn dish soap and lightly use my fingers (in the water) to get it off-no scratching and the toning should all still be there.

If it ever came down to bartering with junk silver, its better if they actually look like silver to the uneducated. There was a small amount of silver lost in this process... but its probably something like 0.010 grams out of however many pounds he added in there. Who cares? Even if silver was worth $1000 an ounce... that 0.010 grams is only worth 30 cents. Think people, before you cry about all the silver that went down the drain

If you want shiny coins go for it. If they are only worth their mental content it doesn't really matter. But most collectors like to see the age on coins it tells a story of what a coin has been thru in it's life. I'm one of those people but to each his own I guess. They do look pretty cool all shiny tho
