To clean or not to clean?

What you think? Should I dip these?

I have never done this and am a bit nervous to try this with two pretty valuable cans

Those both would benefit from a nice bath.

If you have never done it, I would recommend having someone with some experience clean them for you (since you say they are rare). It is easy to ruin cans if you are not careful.
