There are probably a number of liquid systems that can probably achieve good results for you; however, as any gun reloader knows, the best method to achieve outstanding results is to use treated corncob in a small tumbler. Word of caution, if you use this method, pennies are plated and too long a time cycle will remove plating. Also be careful handling afterword. Use gloves or protect with thin oil film like WD-40 ⇦this on eBay or Amazon [affil links] .
