An old vintage coin that is not in circulation, I like to leave the coins in their original condition; however, if the coins are current and still in circulation I will clean them up with a polishing cloth.

Your pieces are beautiful – minimalist enough not to distract attention from the coins, yet artistic enough to be in regular rotation for wearing! Your coins are so shiny – do you clean them before creating the setting around them?
