So with the sulfuric acid pennies, zinc is reactive with sulfuric acid which produces zinc sulfate. Sulfuric acid only reacts to copper in high concentrations, and when heated. That's why the solid copper pennies stayed the same, but the copper plated zinc pennies crumbled. They were essentially hollowed out by the acid.

Suggestion:

Next time, place all of the jars in an ultrasound bath so that the contents are agitated, rather than just soaking, which would encourage any dirt or corrosion loosened by the liquid to fall away, freeing the layer underneath to come into contact with the liquid. It should also minimize the chances of the surfaces of pennies being occluded by other pennies in the jar.

Vinegar and salt into a jar lightly swush around for three minutes and turn on the cold water and rinse well! also place a small amount of flitz cream on a old clean rag and work the cream into the rag well let it dry somewhat and use the rag to clean up the already three minute coins that Still cannot be read, just enough to be able to read them.Do not over clean it makes the buyer uncomfortable and ruins the coin's natural iridescence! It is better to leave them dirty, However, sometimes the damage is covered by dirt and that is 70 bucks down the drain if the coin is an ms62 instead of an ms68. Of course, all coins will become valuable over time never take the advice of anyone who tells you copper is a waste of time and dimes and nickels are too hard to read! Even tokens are great if they bring back a good memory.I have tokens I still am clueless as to what they are? but that makes me want to keep them even more!

Oh come on, we all know mountain dew would make a penny as good as new.

Tbh this is the most I genuinely laughed in a long time. Thanks for this content I needed this laugh and the education about cleaning my coins

Dude i love your channel. Only thing i kinda wish for, though, is you expand these tests. There are so many other liquids to try. I could easily see like 20 or more. It’d actually be super cool to see. I hope you could retest some stuff, like this one. In any case, love your channel man

You 1000% should've wiped them off to see if the dirt was loose or not

Ketchup happens to have nearly the perfect amount of salt and vinegar in it to clean copper and brass.
I honestly use it to polish copper pans.

I remember you posted a picture of a container and we were supposed to guess what was going inside it. The person said vinegar and pennies. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!!🥴

[cecile]

Thanks to your experiment! Wow ! Ketchup is the best to clean coins 👌❤️I’ll definitely do that

I missed the birth of my child to watch this video thanks Tyler 👌🏼

Jason metal prep. Soak for 1 1/2 min. Then add baking soda. Agitate for 30- 40 sec. Rinse and clean with Dawn dish soap. Rinse and soak in jet dry and water for 10 sec. Rinse and pat dry thoroughly. NOTE: Pennie’s that have sticky stuff should be cleaned with soap and water first. The Pennie’s will look very nice. All copper Pennie’s will still be a different shade of color. You can pick out older from newer without a doubt by color. Long term effect unknown yet. Never use steel wool. That will contaminate the coin unless it’s copper wool. And that will scratch the surface badly.
Dont do this.

I know this is gonna sound time consuming but next time you should take pictures of the control before and then take pictures of each control afterwards so that we can visibly see any differences. Great video, nonetheless!

[jackward]

Your vids are helping with my anxiety thank you ❤️

[ElevatedWarriors]

I look forward to when I get the notification on my phone of Tyler posting a new video 🙌🏽

[BeanVene]

There's another channel on YouTube that used a very concentrated vinegar and salt solution that worked incredibly well in cleaning pennies almost effortlessly. As a kid I recall cleaning them with a paste of baking soda and water. You had to do some rubbing but it got them quite clean and shiny. I agree with another post here that mentioned trying Barkeeper's Friend, that stuff is quite an effective cleaner, I've used it on copper bottom pans with great success, or even Bon Ami may work well. I think the key is using some elbow grease, rather than just letting them sit in various liquids, which likely wasn't as effective as using the solutions to rub and polish them clean. Just my 2 cents 😉
