vinegar. a reaction occurs between the two cleaning a good deal of all the dirt of the penny. You should never try to clean anything except ordinary circulation coins. Any coin that's worth a premium as a collectible will have its value reduced by home cleaning. The chemicals (e.g. vinegar is an acid) will affect the coin's metal and make it less attractive to a collector. That's just the way things work with collectibles. Remember those Antiques Roadshow episodes where someone proudly shows off the 19th century table that they stripped and refinished? It looks really nice, but then the appraiser tells them that before cleaning it was worth, oh, $25,000 or some similar amount, but now it might sell for $4,000....
