How to Clean Coins (Safely for Circulation)
What You’ll Need:
- Warm water
- Mild dish soap
- Soft toothbrush
- A towel
Instructions:
- Soak the Coins
Place coins in warm, soapy water for 10–15 minutes. - Brush Lightly
Use a soft toothbrush to gently scrub dirt or grime. Focus on edges and grooves where buildup often hides. - Rinse and Dry
Rinse thoroughly with clean water and pat dry with a towel. Avoid harsh cleaners or acids — they can damage the coin’s surface or reduce collector value.
⚠️ Note for collectors: If your bills or coins are rare or potentially valuable, avoid cleaning them. Restoration can reduce their worth. Always consult a professional before attempting to restore collectible currency.
The Bottom Line
You don’t have to toss out money just because it’s seen better days. With a little care and a few minutes, you can restore your cash and coins to a much cleaner, more presentable state — no special tools or expensive products required.
So the next time you pull a wrinkled, grimy bill out of your coat pocket, remember: do it immediately, and your money will be good as new.
