Silver dollars and half dollars are often collected for more than their silver value, cleaning them will only ruin their collectable value. You will never add value to a coin by cleaning it (the exception being coins dug out of the ground) and can possibly shave tens, hundreds or even thousands of dollars off the value of your coin by cleaning it.
