i have been collecting 20 and 50 cent coins. should i clean them?? if so how and what should i use??

Chosen Answer:

NO! If they are valuable and have not been preserved in uncirculated – mint condition, then you remove some of the value along with the tarnish.

I collect the Lincoln pennies, Jefferson nickels, Washington quarters, and the Roosevelt dimes. There are some that are so dirty and so stained, I was wondering if using Brasso cleaner is a good method of cleaning the coins. It would make my collection look very nice I am sure, but will it harm them in anyway? Does it really take away from any value that they may have? If so, are there good alternatives? I have tried using things like ketchup, lime juice, and even Tabasco sauce with no real luck. Thanks for the help

Chosen Answer:

If you’ve already used ketchup and other things on these coins, you’ve ruined any collector value they might have had. Your collection won’t look nice to anyone who knows coins, it’ll look like hell. They might look shiny, but they won’t look new. The dirt may be gone but the scratches and abrasions the coins already had, before you added even more by cleaning them, will be even more noticeable. These coins will never look right again.

If you just tried this stuff out on other coins but not you collection, good. Don’t clean them.

Hi, I am planning to buy some gold coin for investment purpose. To make sure of purity, I am planning to buy from Banks. As its investment purpose, I will be selling it after I gain handsomely / in emergency.
So does anybody know – which Indian Banks buy back the gold coins sold by them?

Chosen Answer:

indian banks are not authorised to do trading in gold coins. restriction by RBI.
why ? i am not sure but maybe they will start selling gold at 100 Rupees per gram (like they do for telecom and for flights ) which will effect the gold prices majorly.

why do you try Gold ETF ? they are more simpler

I always wanted to know what hapens to coins after they get thrown into fountains. Who gets to keep them? Janitors, or someone else?

Some malls donate the money to charity. They usually post a sign near the fountain naming the charity.

How do I not get ripped off getting rid of these US coins?

Chosen Answer:

There are a couple of ways you can go:

First is to take the collection to a couple of different coin shops, and ask them what they’re worth. Tell them you’re not interested in selling, but you just want to know what you have. Then you can decide who you want to sell to, if you want to sell to either of them.

The second idea is to sell them on E-bay. That’s going to require a little more work. You don’t want to try and sell everything in one big sale–if you do have anything of value, that’s going to get missed in the mix of all the other coins.

Either buy or borrow from the library a copy of “A Guide Book of United States Coins” by R.S.Yeoman (also known to collectors as “The Red Book”). That will list all US made coins by date and mint, and also include approximate values. You’re not using it to find an exact value–what you’re going to look for is coins that are worth a lot more than other coins of the same design. Those you’ll want to pull out and sell separately. If most of the remaining stuff is common, you can sell those as one lot. You probably won’t get as much as if you sold everything separately, but it will save you a lot of hassle.
