<p>[QUOTE=&quot;serafino, post: 376152, member: 7785&quot;]I want to thank&nbsp; daveydempsey for his tip on using Ammonia to clean silver. I had two Italian 83% silver coins: 1860 50 Centesimi and 1884 1 Lira. They had both toned very dark, almost black. I used an over the counter 10% Ammonia bottle from the supermarket and using a cotton Q-Tip the dark tarnish quickly dissolved. I rinsed off with water and they look MUCH better. </p><p><br /></p><p>I had previously heard that Ammonia would turn silver black so to test that theory I put a common 1940&#039;s American 90% silver dime into a small jar of Ammonia. It&#039;s been in there for 24 hours and I don&#039;t see any change in it&#039;s toning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
