Answer 2

I read that you can put pennies into vinegar and this will clean them, but there were other ways to do this because it was a science project and quite fun, but I don't remember off hand and I don't have time to go through all the books I have to find it.

Answer 3

Vinegar and salt.

Fill a small bowl with vinegar and then add a couple teaspoons salt and drop your pennies in. They should start to shine in a few seconds. If not add more salt.

Answer 4

Mix salt and vinegar in a cup. Let the pennies sit for awhile.

Answer 5

You can put pennies in lemon juice (lemonade) for awhile and later when you take them out it will shine.
