Great job! You aren’t doing much different than what people pay NGC for when they send their coins in for conservation. I appreciate the disclaimers and educational videos. Keep up the good work!
I've bought raw dull cleaned coins before and will again. Not everyone wants an MS 66 set of graded Morgan's. These seem decent enough for your business to make a little profit. Full disclosure is important for your integrity and I appreciate your knowledge and experience being conveyed through your channel.
@@yamaha226 I agree, I hate seeing blast white Morgans and silver coins, a lot of sellers on ebay do that and call it BU Unc, with no striking lay, or cartwheeling luster, makes my blood boil a bit. But hey buys can collect what they like, but they have to also understand that when they go to resell they are not getting what they paid for it, and if they want to send in for grade the coin may come back as with a cleaned detail, and then they get upset about the grade, "well yeah you bought a BU unc coin off of ebay" duh. LOL
You said it best, "These are my coins and making them more presentable makes me feel better about them." You aren't pulling the wool over anyone's eyes. I think that we have too many, "Coin Nazi's" out there who complain about any sort of cleaning up. If you don't like my coins, don't buy them! Besides, I am hanging on to them for SHTF use anyhow and at that time, it won't matter much because they will be worth silver content then anyhow. I would feel differently about key date coins; of course.

I take the same approach. I look for coins like this at shoes with the intent of getting them for a good price, restoring, and putting into my collection. Thanks for sharing.
Those Morgan's restored even better than i thought they would . Excellent job restoring them Daniel they look 100% better . If you had them graded i would be shocked if they didn't come back with straight grades . Great Job .
Daniel I have used the ezest cleaning method especially on my proof Cameo Franklins and Kennedy’s. The coins are in the cello so long they develop a very nasty haze to them after treatment most look amazing. I have submitted many of these coins to PCGS and NGC and gotten some fantastic grades. I also am not by any means promoting this method. I only know in most not all cases it worked for me. I have not tried on Morgan’s and I doubt I will.This method will not remove milk spots. I thank you foe this video. I do have some slabbed coins that I don’t think would have been graded if I did not use this method. God Bless Us Everyone.
Numismatic yoda, thanks for all the information. I did like the 21 Morgan as it was initially presented. The uniformity of the gray toning was cool. The cleaning did make it a very attractive coin. 6 of one, 1/2 dozen of another.
The silver coins are nice even when you did fix them up a bit but having silver coins in our town we live in a sulfur smelling town and our coins get tarnished its kind of discouraging for the silver coin collecting.
Great job. They look so much better and you saved some coins that might have been sent to melt by someone. You did not ruin them you brought them back to life.
I recently watched a RU-vid video about how to artificially rainbow tone Morgan dollars. The "instructor" said to use manila envelopes like what you showed. When you moved them around in the light before dipping you could see the early stages of rainbow toning on some of them. The work you did turned out great. I think blast white is beautiful although that one guy's artificial rainbow Morgan's were as well.
I got a bunch of coins in those envelopes in an auction lot, mostly coins from the 50's and 60's. If you think they mess up silver, you should see what they do to copper. Every copper coin was a dead loss (fortunately mostly wheat and memorial cents, but one large cent that i almost cried over). The chemical reaction with the acid-based paper actually pitted the coins. I've seen dug early coppers come out looking better than these wheat and early memorial cents. I *think* that most manufacturers use acid-free paper for this sort of thing now, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
If used right on certain coins ezest works good like you said have to rinse well I use distilled water pat dry do not use a Q Tip it will scratch one thing you have to watch for if that toning dont come back on the coin
Wow thanks for doing the experiment for us Daniel! I’d say they came out very nice, who’s to say the big guys don’t do that to their coins? Keep those specials on your website coming!
@@davidho2977 your opinion might be valid, but still, even as a “big guy” he cannot rank up there with the JM’s and Apmexes of the world. And his personal attention is way better than any of the big guys. I just ordered from him Saturday and my package(triple wrapped!)is already here. APMEX shipped last Thursday and am still waiting I’ve ordered thousands from them yet they do not see fit to upgrade my shipping I must pay for that. Telling ya Daniel is a deal even with shipping costs.
Very nice, I get what your saying and if you disclose that you restored them then the buyer has the opportunity to judge for themselves if its a problem. I would be proud to own them!🏹
After years of coin restoration, I got to know which coins would benefit from dipping and which to avoid. Those I would have shied away from, but they definitely are improved. If they were proof coins, however, the mirror surfaces would have shown how much etching has occurred. Nevertheless, they are now marketable to the right person and they won't cost them that much.
I had a silver coin with a green haze, I had baked something at 300 degrees F. I put the piece in for 10 minutes and cool down...coin came out with a dust that was an easy wipe to clean off. It looked very good.
Most excellent! I cleaned up a few of my Morgan’s with a sterling silver polish. Starting with soap and water, drying, then applying the polish and gently drying it off and rinsing it. Turned out wonderful. For me it’s just trial and error on a small scale. Your video’s are dynamic and appreciated.
You might see light scratches using any magnifying source as the grading company does. It's not recommended as it destroys the value of a coin. It's why people are told not to clean coins!! Only a couple of products don't scratch coins, even the method of drying can leave scratches. Especially on proof coins.
I buy alot of silver coins every year mostly Mongan,and peace dollars and all I do to some of them that look dirty is put my coins in a pie pan with aluminum foil with hot water with a few spoonfuls of baking soda with hot water works great will not hurt finish or toning coins are cleaner and will never hurt the finish done hundreds of coins this way and sold some of them to a friend who is a top collector in my area,try this.
I remember back in the days, the 1990s, I specifically asked the dealer if the PVC flip holders are safe and he said that he had no problems. You pretty much know what happened.
Yes, the PVC flips are a chemical engineering fiasco. At the time everyone thought they were safe, but it took some time for people to find out they weren't.
Nothing wrong with these coins (IMHO) Daniel. In fact, I would be very happy with coins like this in my collection with the appropriate labeling that they've been cleaned. Frankly, assuming these coins stay safeguarded in your or your family's (or some family's?) collection for the next 100+ years, any signs of cleaning last week will fade away with time and the natural metamorphosis of the coin. But YOU can enjoy them more NOW! Nice job.
I do this to coins and send them off and get problem free grades. You more than likely bought a coin from me that was restored this way. It doesn't harm them.
You know with the videos I've been watching of you you help me with eBay because I noticed that on the 2011 Sacagawea dollar coin that they're saying that there's no mint date but they're not showing pictures of the edge which is on the 2011 so they're really high-priced and trying to rip people off
Well, there’s a reason NGC says “improperly cleaned” and six other way to describe improperly attempting to improve a coin’s appearance. that to me says there’s a proper way. So I would very much like to see if you can get straight grades for any of them.
I’m curious if that would work on pennies. I have some that seem to have good definition but a layer of green. Right now I keep in a box with several moisture absorbers
I think you did well...could you show us a picture of the product / products you use to clean them please ? Thanks for all you for us and the hobby - you are a credit to humanity and the coin world !!
I know some of you don't believe me. I am sending them all off, not because I need to know but some people have incorrect information and assumptions on restored coins.
Hi Daniel, hope you're well and your family. I also hope Siku is feeling better. I was wondering if you could do a video on the differences in the 1982 Lincoln cents. I've managed to get myself confused over them. Kind regards, Donna. PS. Great information in this video. Love Morgans but living in Australia, I've just gotten both 1937 and 1938 Crowns. Beautiful coins if you get a chance to get any go for the 38 as that's last year minted. I'll try and send a photo through your website as I'm a member now.have a great weekend!
Thank you! In regard to your question, please go to my channel by clicking the link under the videos entitled coinhelpu. I have several videos on this subject. I have about 900 videos total.
I would have like to see the process of the mixture you used. I have several Morgan’s from my grandfather that he left in a old cardboard box that have the same haze look.
Do you have a hack for taking the toning off of over toned coins. I realize you do not condone any cleaning of coins. I will not try to put chemicals on my coins but it would be nice to know if their is a method or product that can remove toning without destroying the original outer layer. What you do I believe is not easy and not done properly by most brave coin owners. You have many talents. Great video and good job, their is no need to mention that they are restored. If it pases the NGC and PCGS submission then their is no problem needing mentioning .
It would be REALLY interesting to see you now submit these to PCGS or NGC to see how they come back? I know this video is a couple years old...but, that might be an idea for a future video??
I did send them and I did a video on that as well. Every submission I send in has some coins I restored and they come back problem free unless they were already cleaned before I restored them.
I have 2 Morgan dollars 1921 ungraded and I want to know how to clean them well and to see if it’s worth sending off to be graded and see the value of them please help me.
