_Can you  clean state quarters_ 
(http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080901102048AAAE8pU) 
 
"...You don't clean coins period. They lose value and most things that have 
 acid in them such as vinegar actually eats the metal. Salt will causes  
scratches, very small ones and a dealer will hand you back the coin and say it 
 was damaged and offer you nothing. State quarters are inexpensive even 
from a  coin dealer so get some uncirculated ones. the last one will be out in  
about  that you collect? - Yahoo! Answers..."

I'm a former museum worker turned teacher in Washinton DC and my class is  
about to start a project to collect all 50 state quarters.  I'm wondering  
if there is something that we would be able to use to clean the quarters  
because many of them come in very used condition.  
 
Thank you for your time and help,
 
Christopher Latham
