And look at that like magic I don’t see nothing…!!!

I work in a tollbooth and we're allowed to buy any US minted coin for face value. In 2022, I recovered 58 Buffalos.

If you clean old coins in anyway it reduces their value sometimes making them worth nothing

[donaldphelps]

I have tried this and it can bring out some detail but i doubt if it can give a coin any more value because it damages the coin also.

[kurtreese]

It's not cleaning folks. I use a similar substance when painting mini figures. It's basically watered down brown ink. Just wipes off without altering anything.

[Sweeney-Kubach]

Don't ever clean your coins with chemicals.

[privatecitizen]

This will ruin any numismatic value your rare nickle might have had.

[lkayh]

I see a lot of people scolding you about “cleaning” coins. It’s absolutely true that cleaning coins (that have numismatic value—key point here) is a huge no no.

But first off, no-date Buffalo Nickels have little to no numismatic value—they aren’t even worth the cost of postage to send them to a buyer, which is why you see them sold only in lots on eBay.

Second, this isn’t cleaning. This is actually using an acid to expose the date—it is in fact adding a little damage to a coin that is already damaged by circulation to the point where you can’t even see the date.

And that’s the point—if these nickels have ANY numismatic value, the ONLY way to find out is to use something like Nic-a-Date to expose the date. Admittedly, if you do this and expose a common date, you’re unlikely to find any buyers for it, even in a lot, but you’re not losing much money. But in the rare cases where you expose a key date or date error, you’ve taken a coin worth at most 50 cents and now it’s worth considerably more.

Cleaning coins!! Sinner!! Oh the humanity!

[SeasparrowDD]

You just paid more money for that cleaner than what any coin you used it on is now worth..

[jackblackpowderprepper]

If you have to use chemicals or special lights to read a date on a coin it's called a slick. Slicks are worth melt weight.

[johnjrkean]

Apply the solution....and look at that!!! U now have reduced the value of the coin and still cant see the

[MrDorf]

They are the best coin the US mint has ever made.

[stevenkatz]

Good Old Nic-A-Date, that solution has been around for generations.

I'M NEW TO BTC OLD COIN SILVER AND GOLD I'VE BEEN MAKING LOSSES TRYING TO MAKE PROFITS MYSELF IN TRAD... PLEASE CAN SOMEONE RECOMMEND A GOOD EXPERT AT LEAST ADIVCE ME IN WHAT TO DO

[ChuckyMcNubbin]

Overdates exist in a few years of the buffalo nickels. 1914 is one such date. I have a 1914/13 overdate.

[franklinmartin]

Back in the "day" when 5¢ could buy a candy bar. When 5¢ was worth something.

[GHOST]

Such a shame there were not any buffalo in America at that time. Maybe 'Bison nickle' would have been more appropriate.

[Me-into-We]

And ohhhh yeah. We forgot to mention. Once you put this chemical on your coin. Your coin becomes upgradeable!!! But never mind that.

[highpockets]

If coins that have been nic-a-dated are worth more, why do coin shops have hundreds for sale that havent been nic-a-dated? Wouldnt they be checking for key dates instead of selling, unchecked, for a quarter or 2?
