[QUOTE="Silver_Fox, post: 38309, member: 1656"] The extra virgin olive oil is good but it doesn't get into all the nooks and crannies of the coin.... Same, I wash them in hot soapy water first then I keep them in the oil for about a week, perhaps that's not long enough. There was another post ([i]Forum -> Coin Shooting -> Recent Predecimal Finds[/i])where they were talking about coin tumblers. I'm interested in trying this out on my none valuable pennies that I have pulled up from the ground, getting my hand's on one is a different story. For my silvers I like to soak them in lemon juice for about an hour then gently rub bi-carb soda over the coins, afterward put them back into the lemon juice for a further hour and dry them off. They come up a treat! Apparently the lemon juice acts as a protection from tarnish or something similar. SF [/QUOTE]
