CLEANING COINS
Posted: Sun Dec 07, 2014 10:15 amI play my machines (50 thousand pulls average) and record results of putting 100 coins through checking a running payout. Some have only uncirculated coins. The coins get dirty and here is how I clean them:
Soak overnight (24 hrs) in "Purple Power" (available at Walmart) mixing up coins a couple of times
Do a final mixing and drain off remaining "Purple Power" for reuse.
Rinse thoroughly with hot water (colander works)
Key: Rinsing does not seem to completely remove purple power
Spay Windex over coins and mix. This seems to remove film
Rinse with hot water, drain and spread coins on towel.
Should dry instantly and you should have "bright" coins
No more dirty hands. I sill try and use a coin glove.
