Do you ever answer to your comments?
I literally love you Tyler 😘
So with the sulfuric acid pennies, zinc is reactive with sulfuric acid which produces zinc sulfate. Sulfuric acid only reacts to copper in high concentrations, and when heated. That's why the solid copper pennies stayed the same, but the copper plated zinc pennies crumbled. They were essentially hollowed out by the acid.
I do like how the sulfuric cleaned the pennies immediately. They were super clean before he even went to the next ingredient.
While you're right about the laws governing the destruction, defacement, cementing, and copying of U.S. currency, I'm taking this as a joke anyway. If what you are saying is valid, every child, magician, and artisan that nas torn a dollar bill for a magic trick, smashed a penny in one of those machines, or made a beautiful piece of jewelry from coins is a felon and needs to be reported, prosecuted, and imprisoned to the fullest extent of the law... RIGHT NOW! (eye roll)
@underground leaks 101 His intent was to clean them. If anything, he's proudly owning U.S. currency. Good luck getting him in jail for that
@underground leaks 101 The whole law, if read, stresses "fraudulently" in every warning sentence.
No fraud intent, you can do anything you want.
Frauds:
Zinc-plating pennies to pass for dimes in a handful of coins.
Restamping nickels to look like quarters.
Hollowing out silver coins before spending them.
Inking Zeroes onto the corners of a $2 bill to look like a $20.
You ruined it for me

America: WE HAVE A COIN SHORTAGE WHERE ARE ALL THE COINS??
Tyler: - hides the sulfuric acid -
lol
\
Pfft. Why can’t get nitric acid?!
That so called coin shortage was to get everyone to turn in their change so that banks could remove coins that actually had any value, so that only the newer coins that will rot after a year's time will be the only ones in circulation. If you notice that or not I am not sure, but that's what it was meant to do.

Tyler: i wouldn't think draino would cause corrosion
Back of draino bottle: WARNING: corrosive
Yeah it is sodium hydroxide and sodium hypochlorite.
Same with "nitric acid"!
Tyler: "I suspect this will not do what i suspect"
Or it will do nothing at all.
paradox
Oh come on, we all know mountain dew would make a penny as good as new.
I am drinking mountain dew right now 😂
You mean good as dew
@underground leaks 101 he's trying to clean coins not protest there was no intentional destruction except on your part to try to ruin our mood, Karen!
@underground leaks 101 Man you are dense, it’s not illegal to destroy US currency, you can do whatever you want to it as long as you have no fraudulent intent with it, IE melting it and selling the raw materials. Please do some research before embarrassing yourself especially when his main goal is to clean them not even destroy them in the first place
As good as DEW
Suggestion:
Next time, place all of the jars in an ultrasound bath so that the contents are agitated, rather than just soaking, which would encourage any dirt or corrosion loosened by the liquid to fall away, freeing the layer underneath to come into contact with the liquid. It should also minimize the chances of the surfaces of pennies being occluded by other pennies in the jar.
I was thinking the same thing
as a scrapper, i promise if you leave copper in coke over night or at most two days, it'll make #2 copper, turn into #1.
I was thinking coke when i saw the video title
I remember you posted a picture of a container and we were supposed to guess what was going inside it. The person said vinegar and pennies. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!!🥴
I can’t remember what I put now 😂😂

Tbh this is the most I genuinely laughed in a long time. Thanks for this content I needed this laugh and the education about cleaning my coins
Your vids are helping with my anxiety thank you ❤️
For those who didn't know ketchup removes patina from copper and brass
I use to do this with corroded coins I’d find in cafes I detailed
No it doesn’t ketchup removes the secondary molecular strain of chemical hydrogen and remnants of formula atoms. Do ur research
If I had a penny I would rub my ketchup on it 😪
@@valenjessy87 I'm watching a lot of restoration videos and when there is a lot of patina on brass or copper they wrap it ketchup and then remove it with a towel
@@valenjessy87 no, and i dont think you actually know what you are talking about. The acetic acid in the ketchup just reacts with the copper/zinc oxides to form the respective acetate salts which are water soluble
You 1000% should've wiped them off to see if the dirt was loose or not
He did wipe most of them off, not super hard but at least enough that would get any loose dirt off.
I thought he should of actually tried to clean them as well. Not just pull them out of the jar.!
Dude i love your channel. Only thing i kinda wish for, though, is you expand these tests. There are so many other liquids to try. I could easily see like 20 or more. It’d actually be super cool to see. I hope you could retest some stuff, like this one. In any case, love your channel man
finally uploaded been waiting the whole week

Best random experimental videos on UA-cam as far as I'm concerned. Everything is always so different that you never get bored of the channel. 💪🏾
You just did some elementary school kid's science fair project for them lol.
"Is Ketchup an effective penny cleaner"
This guys asking all the questions we’re wondering! Genius 😂❤️
I know this is gonna sound time consuming but next time you should take pictures of the control before and then take pictures of each control afterwards so that we can visibly see any differences. Great video, nonetheless!
Don't even need a picture, he could just show the items close to the camera, when first setting up. Then he can compare side by side with the result.
Definitely but this is TylerTube, where the most unscientific testing takes place.

10 seconds in and I’ll just say it, having been in JROTC and ROTC in college, copper shines up the best with lighter fluid. Lighter fluid is the best, hopefully you use that as a tester.
Tyler can’t make a breakfast sandwich right, what makes you think he can be trusted with lighter fluid

I just can't imagine Tyler without his garage and his weird but cool things he does. I've watched this channel grow over the years and one thing i love about Tyler is he's still the same and he hasn't changed at all. I also love that he's still a nice guy a really nice guy most UA-camrs turn into morons when they start getting bigger but with Tyler he hasn't at all.
I agree
When I was a kid collecting coins, I would clean them by putting a spot of Crest toothpaste on the penny and rubbing it with my index finger and thumb. Worked great, then I found out that cleaning the pennies can decrease their value.
How does it decrease their value?
Yeah, I don't know who told you cleaning a penny can decrease its value. But I'm pretty sure they're wrong. Typically, those closer it is to "mint" condition, the higher the value.
@@jacobwheeler7402 it rubs away fine details on the coin, polished/cleaned coin are worth 2-4x less then “virgin” coins
@@katiewyatt4399 Yeah, naturally mint condition coins, not poor condition coins brought back to "mint" condition through cleaning. Soap and water rinse, sure, but not anything abrasive or corrosive or anything like cleaners or acids or toothpaste.
They're all worth 1 cent, can't get less valuable than that.
Tyler: We all know about pennies
Me: yes, yes we do
I read this as soon as he said it cause I was watching an ad😭💀

1M(molar) just means that there is 1 mole of chemical per 1L. Molarity is used to determine potency of the solution. Moles are how chemists compare number of molecules of chemicals even though they have different chemical weights.
Example: 1 mole of C is 12.01amu but 1 mole of Na(sodium) is 22.99amu.
They weigh different but have the same number of molecules.
Interesting, I thought moles were blind rats that lived underground and ate worms and roots
You should do videos testing out the dollar store cleaners!!!!! Your videos are awesome btw, my husband and I watch you all the time!

I new my ex was a demon...she ate peanut butter and pickles when she was pregnant. Thanks for confirming.
Pennies that have a 1cent are known as having a 'wheat'
They are usually worth more than the average penny!
perhaps for the age value. but, same composition of other pre-1981 pennies from what i understand. so, melt value is the same. ps no penny is 100% copper. copper/zinc
Can buy wheaties for $0.03-$0.05 each unless it's a key date then they go for significantly more 👍🤝
There's some pennies from 1900's that are worth something I forgot what type it was.
@@katiebrooke9040 Indian Head Cents or Pennies were the last penny not to have Lincoln on them & yes they do have a fair value, but the older the better.
@@katiebrooke9040it's either the 1909 vbd or 1909 no vbd
the 1936 penny is a wheat penny, keep it they are pretty uncommon
Can buy wheat cents for $0.03-$0.05 each not to rare at all
I keep all wheat pennies. Which range from 1909-1956. I have about 2000. Not worth anything. But I have them.
@@golddog0113 never said rare, just said uncommon
@@golddog0113 they are not something you find everyday when getting change back.
Jason metal prep. Soak for 1 1/2 min. Then add baking soda. Agitate for 30- 40 sec. Rinse and clean with Dawn dish soap. Rinse and soak in jet dry and water for 10 sec. Rinse and pat dry thoroughly. NOTE: Pennie’s that have sticky stuff should be cleaned with soap and water first. The Pennie’s will look very nice. All copper Pennie’s will still be a different shade of color. You can pick out older from newer without a doubt by color. Long term effect unknown yet. Never use steel wool. That will contaminate the coin unless it’s copper wool. And that will scratch the surface badly.
Dont do this.
Tyler you are great, keep up🤘🏻
Weirdly enough when i was a kid my grandpa and i used to clean pennies with ketchup, don’t know why but we did lol
The acids in tomatoes are an excellent copper cleaner
And excellent at decreasing the value.
@@offbrand2161 Considering that the overwhelming majority of pennies never go beyond being valued at $0.01, no value is being lost. Inflation is the excellent way to decrease value of a penny.
@@Eidolon1andOnly you are right some Penny's are worth more than others like 1954 no mint mark going for 0.65 to 21 good.
source Us coin checker.
@@offbrand2161 I know some might be valued at more than 1 cent, but even securing that price from a buyer is hard to achieve. Those pennies are rare to come across and only coin experts would be able to spot the more valuable pennies, unless they're one of rare pennies made of a different material like steel. Even those aren't extremely valuable. Given the high volume of pennies that have been minted, the chances of coming across a super valuable penny is just fractions of a percent, with most already being in collections. Most pennies valued over a single cent that are still floating around in circulation aren't worth more than few more cents or a few more bucks. Not really worth worrying about.
Love your videos! maybe next time, try giving each penny a quick scrub with steel wool to see if the grime was softened by any of the liquids.
It's not Pre 84, it's Pre 1982. So all Pennies 1981 & earlier are pure copper and always in any condition worth at least $. 03 in copper weight.
What you could be thinking is that pre 84 pennies such as the 1982 & 1983 have some highly collectable & valuable examples. Especially in 1982. There's also 1 or more errors in 1984 & 1980. As well as a 1988 & 1989 D mint coins of value.
I'm sure there's other errors on all kinds of dates also because there always is. The 80s were a great decade.
Thanks to your experiment! Wow ! Ketchup is the best to clean coins 👌❤️I’ll definitely do that
There is a product us drummers use to clean our cymbals called”groove juice”. That or any other cymbal cleaner will do the trick for sure...find these in any music store...
Forbidden soda
that shits brutal, if you aren't careful it could really fuck up the finish on your cymbals
@@midwestmetalbanana9529 True...ya gotta follow the directions closely and make sure to rinse it all away...and avoid the logos if ya wanna keep them...
How to save money!
Step 1.) Buy oxalic acid
Step 2.) Dilute with 2:1 parts water
Step 3.) Come back and like this game changer
I know this test is already over with, but my freshman year I did the same experiment in my science class. The result being that tomato paste cleans pennies very well lol
Sounds like he’s saying panties, lol. “Submerge these panties”
So in wrestling we have the mats with segments in them and we have to tape them up with this super strong clear stretchy tape and it usually take two to three people to lay it out.
Use salt and vinegar mixed together it cleans pennies in seconds
I was literally coming to make this comment.
XD
If you do this again, I would suggest hanging the penny half submerged in whatever substance you want to test. There will be a clear line if it does anything at all.
It probably would just take a toothpick over the jar mouth and some masking tape to hang the penny half in and half out of the fluid.
Hey, heads up:
Some pennies are mostly copper, and some pennies are mostly zinc.
Different material pennies may have different effects from all of the different liquids used in this video. I would go back and seperate the zinc and copper pennies, and then do the experiment again to see what liquid has what effect on which group of metal pennies.
8:18 guys please have mercy with the innuendos lol.
What innuendos?😇
"Since we did the coke, let's check out the monster"
Both coke products.
All pennies before 1982 are fully copper*
They changed mid year in 82 some are copper some are zinc
From what I've read previous 1982 are under 98% copper, after that mostly zinc.
You technically committed a federal crime destroying that penny from the acid lol
Was about to comment that same thing lol
big deal fuck the federal law lol
If I remember correctly, most pennies made before 1982 are ~95% copper 5% zinc except for the steel pennies made during WWII due to copper rationing. The pennies that looked different from 1938 is a wheat penny which can be hard to find. Pennies made after 82 are ~95% zinc with a coating of copper
Tin was used as well as zinc.
Copper pennies are really brass or bronze.
Ketchup happens to have nearly the perfect amount of salt and vinegar in it to clean copper and brass.
I honestly use it to polish copper pans.
You need to use that machine where it uses sound vibrations in a liquid to remove the dirt
Crushed the like and subscribe buttons! Awesome cleaning technique!!
Your videos are so laid back I love it I watch these just to chill out and escape all the political and pandemic Bs youtube trust to throw at me
He's doing his own DANGEROUS experiments without even realizing lol. Mixing drano, sulfuric acid, vinegar etc. Start wearing a GAS MASK TYLERRRR. Iol.
Your test with the pennies would have worked much better with just one penny in each container and the darker ones. Also as I mentioned earlier comment, lemon juice works real well.
Just puttin some love in this comment. Thanks Tyler for all the experiments I wish I could do but can't afford to do it. Every video I watch from you is always entertaining and I hope you continue making experimental videos.
There's another channel on UA-cam that used a very concentrated vinegar and salt solution that worked incredibly well in cleaning pennies almost effortlessly. As a kid I recall cleaning them with a paste of baking soda and water. You had to do some rubbing but it got them quite clean and shiny. I agree with another post here that mentioned trying Barkeeper's Friend, that stuff is quite an effective cleaner, I've used it on copper bottom pans with great success, or even Bon Ami may work well. I think the key is using some elbow grease, rather than just letting them sit in various liquids, which likely wasn't as effective as using the solutions to rub and polish them clean. Just my 2 cents 😉
The active ingredient in BF is Oxalic Acid - just to let you know...
try hand soap, only after they dry they tarnish.
Hey guy I'm back in my garage let set pennies on fire with ketchup
-He did not say that
Tyler is the awesome brother or cousin everyone wishes they had
Try Ammonia. It is used in some brass polishes. Pennies were changed from all copper to copper plated zinc in the middle of 1982.
A lot of Penny's where hurt in the making of this video
Can you clean pennies/coins in a rock tumbler? - I would feel that would work.... Nice videos btw =)
A lot of metal detecting groups use rock tumblers to clean up & shine the coins they find.
Me who got recommended this at 12:46 am: Tyler: "Which liquid cleans pennies the best?"
Me: "well let's find out"
Ketchup is often used to remove grime from brass and to shine it up, so I'm not surprised it did so well with the copper.
When Tyler makes a video
"Here comes the choo choo train!!!"
Only fans would know
Iron shark Tyler has an only fans???? 🤔
@@wyft2627 no, there aren't . Because if it's only fans then no new people watch his vids. See what I'm saying???
Hot sauce cleans pennies the best. It makes them look brand new
Yup, even salsa. Just don't leave it in the salsa for to long. My 9th grade science teacher showed what happened to pennies left in salsa. Pennies made before 1984 and some newer pennies made after 1984. The older ones were cleaner, but the newer one only thing that was left was a copper skin. The salsa ate away the zinc core. Great way to introduce chemical reactions, and also tell us that if a baby or child swallows a penny get it out of them asap because zinc can be really harsh on their stomachs and digestive tract.
I like how Tyler says wall so casually, doesn't look like any wall I've ever seen
Thats crazy! How the pennys are gust falling apart at 13:35 💣💥
I’d do a pre-‘84 set and after ‘84 set as a comparison. Or try for all the same year.
1. Salt and Vinegar
2. Bar Keepers Friend
3. CLR
4. Simple Green
5. Brake cleaner fluid
6. Nail Polish Remover
If you use Bar Keepers Friend wear protective gloves! I bleached part of my hands with that stuff.
AGREED! AND slather or dunk each penny in the liquid of choice. I don't want to hear about the pennies overlapping and they weren't correctly exposed. What is up with putting all the liquid into one basting pan?! Empty, clean and dry between all liquids! That is how you do a testing. Better yet, have each sample exposed in Its OWN pie-pan!
It's not Pre 84, it's Pre 1982. So all Pennies 1981 & earlier are pure copper and always in any condition worth at least $. 03 in copper weight.

I'm sure there's other errors on all kinds of dates also because there always is. The 80s were a great decade.
You'd want it 82 and prior and 82 and later. That is the transition year.where they removed the copper and replaced it to zinc.
82 and prior were 95%copper, after 82 maybe 3% is actually copper. And costs almost 3¢ to make
I love how tyler videos most of the timea doesn't make reference to the other videos , because they took so long yo prepare , that he even didn't know what is the result of on experiment before starting the other xD.
Enjoyed ur sesson.interesting for sure
Ketchup is a liquid. And both it and mustard are flavored vinegar
Wife - "Babe where's the ketchup?"
Tyler - "In the garage, idk if their is much left though"
Wife - "Uh why is it in the garage wtf were you doing with it"
Tyler - "Dipping pennies in it"
Wife - "My mom was right, I should have married Jim"
A good way to see how clean the liquids are getting the pennies is by clipping the pennies so that they are only partly suspended in the liquid. That way you can have the cleaned half of the penny and a original half to see the change
It would be difficult to completely shine up the more recent pennies, but all the solid copper ones from '81 or earlier could be cleaned like regular copper used in jewelry making. Stick a blow torch on them until they're close to glowing. When cool, soak them in something called Jeweler's Pickle (sodium bisulphate). It works faster if the liquid is warm. After a while, take the pennies out, and gently brass brush them individually under a faucet. The torch burns off all the oils and stuff on the surface, but it would also just disintegrate the zinc cores in the later ones.
the sulphiric acid pennies are immediatly clean and shiny. that did the quickest job
Last time I was this early for anything my wife complained 😂
I feel like I cleaned pennies with CLR many years ago, so whatever the active ingredient in that is might work, or just CLR as is, especially if you were to then do a leaving things in it for a month video.
My kids are huge fans of penny press machines when vacationing. I researched to see if any types of pennies were better, figuring the higher copper content pennies likely are. Every source I found on the subject recommended pre-1984 pennies, shined with ketchup. Ketchup is a great pairing of salt and acid that works great on copper.

When you dissed Monster, I genuinely thought about unsubscribing
My man can't have and opinion.
Okay Kyle
If you do another one of these, leaving pennies in hot sauce would definitely be an interesting add. Hot sauce/ Taco Sauce is one of the best cleaners of pennies.
the vinegar would eventually break through the copper coating and dissolve the zinc inside it takes like a months or a couple of weeks though
Around the middle of 1982 the copper content of pennies was reduced and replaced with more zinc. Several "prepper-collectors" hoard boxes of pre-1982 pennies because of the higher (more valuable) copper content of the old coins and they do the same with very old dimes, many of which have a high silver content compared to dimes from the last few decades.
"Get in there and eat it all out" Lol
I was super satisfied that you kinda caught on to the trend of dirtier pennies maybe being attributed to being pure copper, even though I wouldn’t have
Paint thinner would be an interesting substance to try with pennies and various other things to see what it would do
Lemon juice concentrate is good for this. Also an effective fly killer when they land to drink some of it.
I do like how the sulfuric cleaned the pennies immediately. They were super clean before he even went to the next ingredient.
It must be so hard to keep this videos on a rotation with all the waiting
The bliss of submerging fingers in sulfuric acid and thinking that thin disposable gloves will keep you perfectly safe.....
