What are the communities thoughts on the use of a ultrasound machine to cleaning coins?

I use an ultrasonic bath and distilled (demineralized) water in it.  Mainly for silver coins.  It is certainly more gentle on coins than brushes-pastes-and rubbing with napkins (up-down) which leaves smudges.  Important note - do not mix different metals in one bath - they can interact with each other.  I'm always a supporter of demonstration - photography - only now I'm temporarily away from home in Prague - so I can't show. I recommend it, but it's just my opinion.

Have a nice weekend, colleagues.

Just keep in mind that especially coins of the antiquities  can be quite porous and if Im not mistaken you can damage such coins with ultrasonic cleaning.

If you like coins, medals and tokens with ship motives follow my new instagram account with regular updates @numisnautiker
