Dave Fusco's Coin Cleaner

Tom Hoffman, Jr. sent me these pictures and a movie, showing Dave's great machine. Looks like something that a retired engineer would come up with one weekend while bored.

Very cool! That's the kind of thing that makes America great! Some people sit at the red traffic light and wait - people like Dave sit there and think of a better way to make a traffic signal.

Guess I'm confused, but what is the purpose of a machine like that? Are there that many dirty coins out there that they need laundering?

I don't understand what is doing the actual cleaning? While the coins are being tumbled are they being sprayed or are they tumbling with rice or something?
