I’ve got a few Kennedy with black spots. I didn’t know those black spots are know as “terminal toning”, but now I can use the right term when I refer to them. I’ve only used E-Z-est on coins that I want to brighten to improve the look. Thanks
Nice work. When I first started with coins I was more of a collector than a stacker. But I also wanted to have blast white coins. So I experimented with several different cleaners and I am sure that I damaged them after the cleaning. But since I was collecting I didn’t think that I was doing any damage to the coils, but then I discovered E-Z- est and I learned how to use it properly. This to probably also damaged some of the coins but again I was learning. Now I’m not saying that I’m an expert but now I can look under my microscope and can’t see any damage at all. My method is a little off of yours but I am pretty sure that I can clean coins completely without any damage at all and they look like they were when they first came out of the mint. The only coin I don’t clean is copper cents. But other than that the ones that I do are generally pretty good and probably raise them up a grade or two.
Of course there wont be miceo abrasions, there was nothing abrasive used. Now burning away luster is a different matter. May not be readily evident with a short dip, but it's gonna occur each time regardless
I have no idea it's so old, all I remember is it was purchased from Amazon. I'm almost certain they don't make it anymore. Believe it or not it's still working perfectly. Although now I have a major scientific scope that ran $600 with a 10in HD LCD screen.
It's not about the value really looks were much more important BUT I've resubmitted the walker and received straight grade from PCGS so done right dipping doesn't affect value
Unfortunately copper is notorious 99.9% there going to turn I have seen on some groups I'm in there is something that works but I can't remember what it was.
I took 10 coins that said they were cleaned by PCGS only one out of the 10 for not cleaned I cracked them out use that easy clean stuff and it got back five of the coins out of 10 non cleaned with after using
Wow great video, love the way that walker came out. Love the microscope, what magnification did you have the coins under also what type of microscope is that, is it an amscope? Thanks
I give you another comment. I'm not a collector and certainly not a dealer, just a Cowboy kind of guy. I buy $35 Morgan Dollars and I clean them with valve grinding compound and then polish them with Red Rouge polish. So here is the thing even with a whizzer and using a steel brush (something I almost never do) it would take me a couple hours and I'd have to use grinding compound, to even start to remove those double strikes. But EZ est could destroy them in 20 seconds, Man to me that just sounds Creepy. One of my Morgan Dollars might be a MS 64, well except for someone carved "TIP" on Liberty's Cheek LOL. I actually used a dentist tool to smooth it out a bit. It's one of my favorite coins cost me about $34.it's a gymnast does great cartwheels.
I wouldn't recommend using that stuff regardless of the tone! Even professional conservation services will return it as "detailes"... I've seen it happen before. The ONLY thing I would put on a coin is called "coin care", and it's mainly for copper coins to preserve the planchette from oxidation.. Otherwise just leave them alone
Hey man, this is the first post I’ve gotten to see from you. Thank you for providing us with knowledge. Much appreciated.
A coin that is completely terminal toned is highly collectible. I know buyers who pay big money for coins that are completely terminal toned.

This is one of a few watchings, You do a good show, impressed, and I'm 66, and collecting for 60 yrs.

Beautiful Seated .20 cent! Great explanation of this process... Also the best job breaking out that i've seen.
Thank you
Hopefully one day I'll finish my type set and Hava a video on it. I've added some really nice coins since this video
Where have you been we miss you
Terminal! Yes, thank you!
Can't get this in the UK as it goes under 'Dangerous Chemicals' and the alternatives here are weak!
Are the coins still gradable after using this?
If dipped to long they will grade Det. and have to be careful during drying, I've only had one grade details after treatment.
You will be able to tell later that it was dipped. Believe me I know it cost me a nice coin.
That was pretty cool, I'm still a cheap coin stacking whizzer but that worked great. Actually maybe too great for me.
Can you give me the make and model of that microscope ? One I bought will not work right

Why would you crack out and dip your coins. Value of them just tanked.
It's not about the value really looks were much more important BUT I've resubmitted the walker and received straight grade from PCGS so done right dipping doesn't affect value
Not mint state coins
@@typeviic1
The Walker was Mint state it was graded MS62 it's now PCGS MS64 I had it regarded the 20 cent wasn't MS to begin with it's AU
@@collectibles4u that was going to be my question, if you resubmitted them. Good to know the walking actually graded higher.
@@tonysambrano1229
I'm not sure how many more times I would chance it I've been studying more and it seems to be 50/50 on coming back details
Do you have success dipping 1C coins? I’ve tried dipping a few pre-‘82 bronze and I’m glad I used “practice coins” first……

@@collectibles4u ms 70 coin cleaner
I took 10 coins that said they were cleaned by PCGS only one out of the 10 for not cleaned I cracked them out use that easy clean stuff and it got back five of the coins out of 10 non cleaned with after using
How did they tone it they are in slabs?
Even in a slap oxygen can get to them along with temp. variations. It's generally a slower process but eventually toning can occur
Thanks

I'm not sure of the brand anymore I've had it so long I can say I definitely got my money's worth
@@collectibles4u Ok, Im sure you did, they come in handy thats for sure. Thank you
clean your coins -- coins in circulation are dirty

How does dipping ruin coins?? I could see how scrubbing or brushing or zipping could ruin it.
