how to make coins brighter/shinier?

I just bought a whole bunch of coins from thebellydanceshop.com for my new leopard/copper coin costume that I'll be constructing over the holidays

problem is...they're a bit too dark. I don't want them to be copper-penny shiny, but I'd like them to sparkle a little more, as they're going on what will be a cabaret-style costume

any suggestions about how to make these dark coins a little shinier or brighter?
my thoughts were vinegar, nail polish remover, toothpaste, etc...but I have NO clue what they would do to the metal
