I recently found a 1837 large cent I attempted to clean it up and really messed it up!! Dammit Comment from : J Boomer |
|
Chigg you ever think about fake patinaI know it's not real but some green spray paint and dirt and rub the design might look better than one that has been cleaned to muchjst a thought 🤔🤔 Comment from : Joshua Taft |
|
I was sweating just watching this video Lol Comment from : Sean Harris |
|
I found a perfect gun powder flask four a colt pistol it’s actually beautiful but I’m wondering if it would be better if I tried to clean it? Any advice on cleaning relics? Comment from : MrTruth1253 |

I use a product like ren wax on a few of my old coins I bake the coins at a low temperature to remove water, low enough to avoid discoloration, before applying the product I am trying to avoid sealing in any water I have done a quick soak in white vinegar on a few with verdigris before baking My coins were old Kreutzers and Italian States coins, part of a lot considered cull Comment from : Michael Leeper |
|
Ridiculous Soak in acetone, use a loosened Qtip to brush over the coin, NEVER rub Then blot dry Do the same with olive oil Using chiggers technique of rubbing, you use the vertigris as a cutting/rubbing compound that can remove metal and further damage the coin It is more time consuming but you protect the coin betterwith a brushing technique rather than rubbing Comment from : Andy Slingblade |
|
I prefer to molest the coin with automotive valve grinding compound Life is to short for toothpicks Comment from : JJ MoneyMaker |
|
Good video! The toothpick can leave small scratches at the coin (when the coin is in really good condition its even more noticeble) Comment from : Gil R |
|
Yep I'm going out to play now! 😁😁 Comment from : Vossie at Treasure & Treats! |
|
Awesome Comment from : Brian Fitzpatrick |
|
I find cleaning off the loose dirt and then soaking the coins in olive oil for about a day, then wiping the coins dry with a old tshirt will leave a copper coin with a not objectionable dark patina Comment from : Lee Helle |
|
Old Chig Ross! Loved this one Would really like to see a fresh look at your museum! Comment from : 828biggs |

Hi Rusty Comment from : itsFloatie |

Have you tried Heinz tomato ketchup - British recipe - cleans copper coins beautifullybrOil de Chigg, dying Comment from : Amanda Pittar |
|
How about those fancy ultrasonic cleaning machines? Those are only good for coins and jewelry that haven't been centuries underground? Comment from : Reub4n |
|
about the hole in a coin that one was a mystery for me for years but the answer is rather simplebrwhen in the past well, to really far back (the middle ages) when a coin type was decommissioned in a lot of cases to make it clear to people that this coin no longer had value they would make a hole in it yup! that's it! I said it was simple! so most coins with a hole are decommissioned coins and what do you do with a worthless coin? well, you toss it! you throw it in the trash and that's why so many coins you find in Europe and most likely the USA have holes Comment from : tino van der zwan phono cave! |

What about a soft toothbrush, no water? Comment from : TreadwellJay |
|
"my fingernail, which I already have out" LOL Comment from : TreadwellJay |
|
Chiggg I seem to remember watching you use some kind of electrolysis on some items before will this work for coins? Also what about a small sonic jewelry cleaner? Comment from : NorCal Hobbyist |
|

|
Kool Video! Im glad you were desperate and made another one on cleaning coins! Now u can do one on buttons since it didnt record lol Comment from : Ancient Adventures |
|
Hey Beau, whats your thoughts on mineral spirits on copper coins I use it on my personal collection not as a cleaner but more presentation as it brings out the details and consistent patina/finish Ive never attempted to do it with coins right out of the ground, say you? Comment from : bgelardi |
|
what about using an ultrasonic cleaner Comment from : David Gaylord |
|
Chigg noticed the bottles on the wall If you break up a denture tablet inside of the bottle and fill with water it will look like new inside Comment from : John Daut |
|
Great info Beau! Merci! Comment from : RESEARCHING YOUR ROOTS |
|

|

|
ha ha hawiping your face oil like that also gives the added bomus of smearing your face with dirt so you can go out deer hunting All the natural makeup just shouldn't go to waste ha ha ha This was very fun as well as instructive Thanks Chigg! You are definitely a son of the soil! Comment from : Lesa Hanners |
|

|
If you think about itfingers are weird Comment from : Mike Rowland |
|
The nose actually produces squalene which is a very durable natural lubricant so it makes sense to rub your nose before rubbing the coins Comment from : Black Sheep |
|
Chigg sticks fingers in ear to get Chigg oil for coins, haha Comment from : Big Haynez |
|
I'm on the fence with this one Human skin oil is corrosive, like corrosive enough to make lead paint bubble up with time So putting human skin oil on a coin, especially softer metals, not really ok Comment from : aserta |
|
Enjoy your vacation chig! Comment from : Daniel E |
|
I see the work you do on those coins and that is a lot of tedious work keep it up it’s a good idea video man out Comment from : Jason Scott |

15:46 anyone else see a guy with mustache and a hat? Comment from : Queeenslandaaarrr |
|
That "Chigg Oil" is actually called squalene oil, a natural substance the body produces Printed products like magazines are generally printed with squalene resistant inks to prevent the ink from smearing from handling Take some "Chigg Oil" with your finger and smear it on a magazine cover and you'll readily see just how resistant the inks may be Those that smear the worst are printed with less expensive inks Comment from : D Stanley |
|
I seen people using lemon juice to clean their coins or even CLR Comment from : Doreen Hubble |

|
Sorry Beau your method is not a good idea For the same reason that you don’t touch mint coins, rare weapons with your bear hands The salts and oils on your skin will corrode them Up to you if you agree or not Comment from : vilsiran |
