I have an old coin that has been in my family for generations. It's quite dirty and tarnished, and I would like to clean it up to restore its original shine. However, I'm not sure how to do it properly without damaging the coin. Can anyone provide me with some advice on how to clean an old coin safely and effectively?

Using an old toothbrush, apply the paste to each coin carefully. The bristles of the toothbrush will help to scrub away any grime stuck to the surface.

After scrubbing, rinse the coins thoroughly under running water. This will wash away the baking soda paste and reveal the coins' shiny surfaces.

This mixture will form a paste-like consistency, which is ideal for removing dirt and tarnish from coins.
