I’ve been down the ultrasonic route and was let down even with a professional grade unit. You have to put a couple of drops of Dawn in the water. I have found that just letting them soak in distilled water for a long time (a week or more) with a water change every other day works well enough. And NO rubbing. This will lift off 90% of the dried boogers off. Oh, letting them soak in the sun helps too.

The jet setting on my garden hose works wonder. Never needed to bring out the pressure washer yet. 😊 I put the dirty coin on a rubber mat on the lawn to prevent them from moving and scratching when spraying water jet directly on it. It cleans in seconds.

[@markfrost2707]

lol..I hope youre talking about wheatbacks

[@liquidelectrum]

I never clean any coins, but I will say that machine did not damage the coins. When talking about cleaning coins, that’s saying a lot. Neat product.

Hope to catch you live soon, trying to fix my car myself but now the engine light on....when it rains it pours ! I'm gonna do a video about cleaning copper very soon

[@davidMW007]

has anyone tried sending in the coins to a grading service after doing this, to see what they can figure out?

[@mortdigo]

Coins in capsules that are set with circular foam tend to have foam stick to the coin when left in the capsule over the years. Hmmm I wonder if anyone tried removing the residual foam with this sonicator ?

[@andyjinkerson967]

Harbor Freight has a similar item that I’ve had my eye on. Now that I’ve seen you use, try and demonstrate. I’m going to get one to run my coins thru. Fun! They’re inexpensive through harbor freight.

[@hughmungus6838]

Put some baking soda and vinegar in there with the water and some crumpled aluminium foil, make sure the silver is touching the tinfoil. works like a charm. Also you can get rid of milk spots by using regular jewlery wipes

[@SalivateMetal]

I am responding to your comment verbally on a live stream at this very moment!

[@CrazyPalidin57]

Baking soda is an abrasive, wouldn't recommend that. But vinegar could be worth a try. However, I wouldn't do anything like this to the silver proofs. I'd use a coin cleaner like ms70 or ezest to clean those.

[@teamamericamattdamon3486]

I have found one thing that does remove milk spotting on Silver it is weimans silver wipes, I had a tube of 20 new Britannia and 18 of them had major milk spotting I gently soaked each one with the wipes gently wiping the milk spots took like about 5 to 10 minutes to do each coin but it looks like there's no damage to the coins, milk spots are gone, though I probably would only use them on already shiny coins

[@objectivesovereignty]

With the PVC maybe you could remove the stuff by running them under a tap with some decent pressure seeing as it's been loosened up like. But maybe right away after the sonicing.

Have you ever tried silver foam with a soft sponge ? Those machines are best for jewellery

[@frankgowalski1345]

Super cool topic Sal ! Any chance you could do another video where you clean a pile of "bagged", dirty constitutional silver ? I think these are the most common form, and plentiful as well. I, for one, would buy that device just for cleaning stacks of pre-1965 quarters ..... as you no doubt know, these are generally covered by a generous layer of caked dirty accumulated over decades of wear. That video would answer the question of "how much time would it take me to properly clean, say, a 40-roll of average wear quarters. Just a suggestion, of course.... But I wonder if any more viewers would be interested in such video ?

I am comparing apples to oranges here, but before I retired I was among many other things the armorer for the Sheriff's Office. I had a professional-grade ultrasonic cleaner. After working with it for some time I found that I could clean weapons quicker and better manually than with the ultrasonic cleaner.

[@CyberCurtainTwitcher]

I've had an ultrasonic cleaner for years, & it even featured in a video once. The only downside I would point out with them, is that if you have a toned coin and you put it in the ultrasonic cleaner it will lift off the crud great, but then expose the untoned areas leaving the toning looking patchy. I usually use hot water in mine Sal, and like you found out, you need to run them through several times.

[@nevadaminer5977]

I run mine at 60 degrees C, 30% white vinegar and 70% water. Add in a tablespoon of dawn detergent. I run it for 30 minutes. Works amazingly well.

[@scottsluggosrule4670]

Highly recomend using distilled water in sonicator to avoid a ring of mineral forming that will be hard to remove & reduce sonicators efficiency over time. Also do not put directly in bath use a beaker so you can change fluid and not contaminate the bath. Fill to mclose to max line for best power.If level low you can damage the sonication generator

Interesting, but I'm not completely convinced. I'd like to know if it would remove blackened silver. I have a 1921 peace that was improperly taken care of. It has great details, but is littered with black spots. I only paid $35 for it because it was so ugly. If it can remove those, it would pay for itself.

Use plastic basket to avoid scratches♥️😺. Use distilled water only ever. These things shake your coins. Tarnish is Silver Oxide. or Cupric Oxide. Jewelers in flea markets will usually do this for free with steam. Note: A grading co. may grade these as cleaned or details cutting value substantially, because they appear to be. Tarnish in denticals and valleys. These are jewelry cleaning machines. Not coin cleaners. ❤️🐥

The best solution for silver, which cleans perfectly in a few seconds, without damaging the silver: baking soda powder, we put a spoon in the hand, we add a few drops of water to make a paste, and we rub gently the coin, masterful result in a few seconds, and it costs almost nothing!
