Hi, 2 questions, is Renaissance wax good for it? Also I have a silver Roman coin but it’s completely black, found it on a beach, any way to remove it? I picked a bit off but there’s solid stuff now

Sometimes the dirt is too encrusted and you have to use water

Hello, and thanks for the video I have a coin that is very badly corroded Any hope in removing that? Also, for those of us in the US, any recommendations on places to buy uncleaned coins? I think part of the fun is the cleaning and discovery of the details as they emerge

What happens if you add this on a coin that has some dirt on it that you just can’t get off with the brush or tooth pick?
Comment from : Ethan Guidry

Hi Graeme , Are you using normal paraffin wax from a candle to rub on to the coins ? Or is it softer than candle wax , or warmed up to soften it ? cheers brAlan

I like that you take a very "defensive" posture on cleaning these People really should first know what they are doing before tampering with ancients Its not like there will be more out there to practice on!

So pleased to have come across this older video whilst filling my time this evening on a caravan break before off into the fields tomorrow My 2 or 3 suspected (badly corroded) Roman coins to date were cleaned up the WRONG way so the info will certainly help me in the future Many thanks

Hi, great tutorial, quick question, I noticed you said not to use for hammered, is there a reason why we wouldn't do this for hammered coins? Also is this ok for Roman and Greek Silvers as well as bronze? Thanks!

I heard you can use vinegar to clean bronze coins is that safe to use?brbralso, I have some bronze coins with green spots of corrosion on it and was wondering how to deal with it correctly do I just put wax over it
Comment from : booba sniffa

Hello Graeme!brThank you for sharing your technique My coin has fine conglomerate rock attached to one whole side The rock is comprised of flecks of terra cotta, quartz, and other sand-like dirt It is very difficult to remove Do you have any suggestions for that kind of problem? There is no soft mud on this coin Thanks again D

Comment from : Sergium46

I hope this isn't stupid questions but can I use the white candle wax? Or candle wax shavings? If I could know some types to use that would be greatly appreciated Also what is the best way to tell between dirt and patina? I'm new to coin cleaning and like your method it works great just struggling on what type of wax to use AMD where to get it Jared
