Those look way better after being cleaned. You did a good job.
Morgans are beautiful coins and those look much better cleaned up. Hope you get good grades. Thanks for sharing. 😀
If you were to send those coins off to get graded please keep us up-to-date that was a truly interesting video.
Big like number 473! Excellent video and thank you so much for sharing! Fabulously done
The 96 sure looks a heck of a lot better. The 78 on the other hand I would have left alone, I quite like that dark toned look. It was kinda hiding what was under it. But hey it isn't my coin and you sure as heck know what the market wants better than I do, you said the vam was easier to see so that's a positive! I am always befuttled by what people are looking for in stuff. Maybe that's because I'm an odd collector and nobody gets what I'm looking for either except my favourite LCS guy, he always pulls coins I want. Anyway, thanks again for all the coin content. Have a fortuitous day!
I would too, but you just can't tell until to restore them. After awhile of doing this you'll see this in your coins. You learn what a re-tone looks like. The way the luster is disturbed or compromised. I agree the 78 looked better before but the 96 looks awesome. Only experience in this and grasping the understanding of originality will you prevail.
@@numismaticstacker Oh yeah you're absolutely right. You don't know what it's gonna do until you do it. You're playing a game where you can either win or lose. You know if you have super dark toning, even under proper grading lighting it can still hide cleaning hairlines. Direct sunlight will bring them out. That's how I always check.
A local coin store near me advised Dawn to get then dirt off and as I was leaving he also suggested acetone lightly. 99% of the Morgan and peace dollars I have were bought as junk, so cleaning I will try.
Thank you Daniel
I remember watching when you pulled that 78 7/8tf from your box of storefront dollars. That was a great catch that day👏👏 . I've been on the hunt for a 96S myself..man those bad boys are $$$.
Another enjoyable, entertaining video Daniel, And educational to boot 👍👍👍
Hey Daniel great video. I had purchased 6 BU Walkers for $200.
Needed resto. I did this on the coins that I felt needed it. Ezest Q-tip and 3 I'd say details other 3 perfect graders. Hummm the 3 that didn't turn out still have a rez. I'm not going to harshly clean them. I will card up sell as BU details for $40. The good graders at ms63/64 have better value. No PVC no worries. Your a pro Daniel and I'm a painter with understanding on conservation.
I truly enjoy your channel Great information from a great person thank you sir coin help very appreciated
Nice result getting that dark stuff off, looks far nicer.
I would like to have both. Great info thank you.
Great information video, Daniel. I have been working with acetone on my very rough looking coins to get a feel for how to apply and how much pressure to apply before I start on my better-looking coins. Thanks again for all you do to help educate everyone on how to preserve our coins. Thanks again, and have a great day .
Yeah it's a bit dodgy sometimes when you have big PVC or tape build up. If you have some patience I strongly recommend just soaking them for a couple hours or even overnight if it's really bad. If you have to use a Q-tip try just pressing it onto the coin. Or rolling it by using thumb and middle finger then put your index on the cotton part for control and pressure so it doesn't slip and cause friction. On proof coins or mirror fields never rub. But matte finish like peace dollars and walkers you can lightly rub and not do anything noticable to the naked eye or under 5-10× magnification. Also don't rinse and pat with water after acetone. Just pour more acetone over when you're done to rinse it and then let it evaporate for 2 minutes. Water has minerals and a towel can have multiple things on it that can do something to it. Acetone just evaporates off and leaves it perfectly clean from oils, dust and minerals.
Man I would of left the 1878 alone . The 96-s needed the help tho .
Thanks Daniel for showing us ! Definitely needed to do something on the 96S as you have done. Cant wait to see them when they come back even though you have stated your expectations. I finally found my pure acetone I have......now on to the painted eagles. lol (no, I don't want any more of them..lol)
Are you sure? I still have a few left. 😂😂😂
@@CoinHELPu I will let you have the pleasure of another video on those 😅😅😅
Great video as always Daniel! Thank you for sharing your knowledge 😎🤙🏼
WHAT I LIKE U DON'T LIE!!! THANKS FOR BEING REAL IN LIFE ❤🎉
Looks much better
Let me know when you plan on putting the coins on the auction block? PLEASE.!!!
I will gladly pay the price that you are asking.
I think you made the right choice on both coins.Daniel, what does vam stand for? Thankyou for the video.😊
Thanks for the knowledge Daniel
I want to take some AACGS, ICG, NGC and ANACS slabbed coins and have them re-graded by PCGS! How do I go about doing that? Leave them in their original slabs and send to PCGS or try to crack out the coins myself and put them in 2 X 2's and send that way? Or send them to you in their original slabs and let you make a determination? Appreciate any advice, thank you!
Call PCGS or send them an email.
Great information!
Thank you
I Like Morgan's for all the same Reasons as you and for the Longest I have been about Never ever clean a coin . I buy them as bad as these were and I doubt that coin will fetch $300.00 with those Details , I have seen them under $80.00 on the Special Wall at my LCS .
But one never knows . Liked the Video :) QC
You've never seen an 1896 S go for $80.
Scotch tape residue. Got quite a few, some still taped in collector cards.
I use acetone on most of my coins, ezest for the nicer ones. Just gotta be careful they haven't been dipped before. I had a lot of haze on a Peace Dollar after I dipped it (ezest).
I use acetone and a light swabbing with a q-tip, just to remove anything on the surface that doesn't belong.
Good luck, it is said NO RISK NO REWARD. I thought they looked wonderful.
I have used Vaseline a couple of times with a q tip to remove magic marker marks,worked well.
Vaseline is a petroleum product and isn’t required or used to restore coins.
There is actually a really good trick for removing marker from non porous surfaces. That should be effective on coins. It turns out that ink will reactivate ink. It also turns out that the additive in dry erase markers can be imbued upon other inks. Say you have a sharpie drawn on the face of your phone screen, or you bought a power drill from a yard sale and it has dudes name on it. Or on a vintage video game cartridge. It doesn't matter if the sharpie drew on it today or if it was drawn on 25 years ago, just use a dry erase marker to draw over the top of the target ink. Wait 10 seconds and wipe off the ink just like you would dry erase. The sharpie ink will blend with it and wipe away easy. Sometimes tyou still have a ghost of the writing, just do it again. On a coin instead of writing and wiping the dry erase, carefully blot the ink on and blot the ink off. No joke works great
Never really clean my coins,except for that occasion i had a couple over the years with a magic marker mark.@@CoinHELPu
Nice SLIDERS!
What about all the silver dollars that were cleaned by the casinos years back so that gamblers would have shiny coins to put in the machines. I doubt any of them would get a good rating.
I would bet good money that they would have something better to say than CACG.
HAHAHA you ain't kidding. They sure are tough sons of guns over there. Go Sox!
I'm not a fan of q-tips when using acetone. I soak my coins. Let the solvent do the work so I don't have to mechanically.
It takes too long.
DETAILS - Cleaned and/or environmental damage
Hey Daniel, great video...Is there a way to remove the toning/discoloration caused by a piece of tape that was placed across the obverse of a coin that was used to hold the coin (Morgan, for example) in a collector album? No residue, just the discoloration from part of the coin toning and part of it being covered by tape. Thanks!!
Nope
There are only two ways I know of to remove the tarnish/toning, both of which essentially ruin the numismatic value of the coin for collectors. So, I would only use these techniques on a common date Morgan that looks awful otherwise. What are they? Jeweler's rouge and TARN-x, both of which attack the problem by removing silver from the coin. The coin will look better to the untrained eye, but most collectors will take one look at the coin and say, "No thanks!" Coins dipped for too long in TARN-x develop a dull-looking appearance and lose the natural shine of the coin. Jeweler's rouge and a polishing cloth or buffing pad will do the same thing in that they remove the top layer of silver. So, you need to carefully consider whether the final results will be worth it. That being said, there are many newbies who would buy the coin simply because it "looks better" than it would have otherwise.
A few years ago, I purchased an 1881 Morgan that had had a piece of white tape strapped across its obverse. Someone removed the tape, but could not get the residue off. I decided to try and remove it. After trying soap and water, and then Naptha (which only had a mild effect) I decided to use Acetone. I ended up having to soak it overnight, but it worked. The next morning, I took a Q-tip and was able to remove the last of the residue. Afterwards, the coin looked so much better. I lucked out on that coin because the toning underneath the tape wasn't any different than the rest of the coin. I still have the coin in my collection. It's in AU-58 condition. Because the coin initailly looked awful, I was able to purchase it at the bargain price of $25 plus shipping. Too bad CZcams doesn't allow before and after pictures to be posted because the results were stunning!
Yes boss I have one dollar coins 1922
Will pcgs clean up the coin before slabbing it?
Nope, you must pay for restoration. Always go to their website and read about their services.
@@CoinHELPu I have a 1992 close AM. Should I get it restored?
No one can answer that question, only the restoration service.
@@CoinHELPu thank you for the help
I use baking soda and hot water. Rinse, and pat dry!
That seems really scary. Baking soda is quite abrasive to a coin. Do you use it as an abrasive or you just put the coin in hot water with it and a chemical reaction takes place?
