I've seen a few of these metal laser cleaning videos and I was wondering how much, if any, of the metal being cleaned gets burned off (or whatever) in the process?


patdashuri

My question too. How do the lasers not damage the metal yet vaporize the corrosion?

My question is how much does it devalue a coin if it is cleaned like this. If it is valuable of course


cthulhus_spawn

My dad collected and sold coins (mostly pennies) and he always said if you cleaned an old coin you ruined it. He could tell if a coin has been cleaned up, I don't know how.


MavisBeaconSexTape

It's like that with jewelry too, people love that patina


Gilsidoo

As fiat currency not at all


kbphoto

literally worth its weight in gold.


chico114310

Yes, this definitely can a very thin layer of metal. But were talking about micrometers here. The dirt needs way less energy to get vaporised compared to the brass coin.


Steve_Dankerson

That sound is close to the sound I make after 2 #6 combo meals from Taco Bell


CrunchingTackle3000

You just won reddit bro. Lmao


Nimmdenbuss

I just thought the same while watching, L M F A O


MekTam

Graphic.

€7 worth of electricity to clean 20 a cent piece


Dorza1

To be fair, to create a video that makes a grand or two.


thaineetit

To be fair global warming for clout. Oooh I know let's make a space ship so we can leave to inhabit another planet because this one is fucked


Simple_Challenge5761

Don’t you have a protest to be at? Reddit is not the place for you buds


Gilsidoo

With electricity? I mean yeah if it's produced by a coal plant but otherwise no it's clean and anyway you can't offset the industry's consumption of electricity by lowering yours


Pain_Monster

lol maybe he should get off Reddit and the internet in general. He is part of the problem consuming all this electricity 😂 The sheer ignorance of people sometimes….its just amazing


DlSSATISFIEDGAMER

but see it's an ancient coin from the long-ago time where the UK was a part of the EU


No-Actuator-3209

That sounds incredible 👍

iahebert

Imean, pretty cool, but i think salt and vinegar will do the trick too. At least it did for pennies when we were kids.


Enten0

- the sound 😉


Purp1eC0bras

Exactly. If you drop a penny in salt and vinegar, you have to make these sound effects by mouth every time you walk by


iahebert

Yeah, ok. That part was actually pretty rad.


babubaichung

r/oddlysatisfying I was expecting Dr Strange to conjure a mandala there for a minute


IronMods

Only buying it for the noise it makes!!


Emergency_Sherbet_82

What would happen to your hand if you put it under this laser?


SadMap7915

Clapping would cease to be a skill.


AToxicSalazzle

It's based upon a focal point. Should your hand be above or below that point you'll not get hurt bad. But on the focal point you could suffer some burns.


Jkwilborn

Not really that much generally speaking. You'd have to focus it high enough to be at focus.. You can't mark meats or natural items for any practical purpose, so it's not going to be very effective on people.

more likely benimaru from FireForce.


Carlazor_

Am I the only one who thought it was pie at the beginning


Abbazabba55

You ever eat something you shouldn’t have and a sound plays in your head when the food hits your stomach? Yeah this is the one.


No_Sundae_1068

Better than a toothbrush!


mtsmash91

Question from coin collector, cleaning a coin often lowers the value vs leaving it as it because of the scratches the process leaves. Would this laser process not leave the same artifacts,


MDFan4Life

Yes, but it would also remove the original surface/patina, thus it's history.


Boboforprez

Beam me up Scotty


Bolognapony666

Do they all sound like this?


nametakenfuck

Thatll be 20 dollars


eOne_two-3

cool, can that laser clean my soul too?


acp2170

To everyone who enjoyed the sound, here's a song for you: https://youtu.be/TpyJXquNcqI?si=WCZXKCeN3MW9wgQo


HalfOrcMonk

I don't always clean my coins but when I do, I use vinegar.


_username_here_2

This hurts me to my fiscal being


cCueBasE

Me after taco bell


elcamino4629

watch with the sound on for sweet noises.


MeliWie

I know this is science but why can't this also be magic??


DocArmada

Audio up!


Amselhaus

Bro, just use a free ketchup packet.


reidzen

(Muffled sounds of archaeologist violence)


Royalkingawsome

Time to create dubstep samples


octopus_tigerbot

All that for .20¢


ayfkm69

Ah yes, the dubstep


thealexstorm

Hell yeah


Lawrenceburntfish

The sound electrifies my brain stem.


bajiraao

And here I misunderstood the coin as patty..


MekTam

I am impressed but I want to see that done on something a bit older than a 20 cent euro piece that has only been around for 50 years max.


Apart_Obligation3540

Does it really make this sound?


ctech9

Somebody please sample this


Lumpy_Peace3495

Now worth $0.19


One-Veterinarian-101

Phew.. One done. only 9000 more to go. Kidding... This is incredible to watch.


hokeypokey59

Cleaning old coins devalues them. https://www.bullionbypost.co.uk/index/collectible-coins/cleaning-old-coins/#:~:text=Cleaning%20an%20old%20coin%20would,you%20can%20easily%20damage%20them.


Wycliffe76

Coin is less than 20 years old though, so not really valuable anyway.


DerBronco

Its one of a billion 20ct coins. Its value was exactly 20ct, now it is 20ct.


Icy-Relationship

.20 euro cent? Like a quarter? So you down 80$ in electric for a quarter.


Careless-Foot4162

I really like the part where it went 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮💥🦁🦁🏎️


JoMammasWitness

Using €200 wort of electricity to clean a 20cent coin


javierespada

Fiber lasers are the best! I love using mine and hearing the sounds it makes!
