When you ask a coin collector for cleaning advice, the gut reaction is usually "don't do it!" Almost all collectors will pay significantly more for a rare coin if its surface is unscratched and the tarnish is left as-is.

Non-collectible coins usually have value only because of the cost of the silver, and you can polish them as much as you like without affecting their price.
