[QUOTE="Nugget, post: 92959, member: 3"] Check out this topic for cleaning Silvers [url]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=663[/url], and this one for old encrusted coins [url]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=4101[/url] I generally don't bother cleaning Coppers, however some have had luck soaking them in Olive Oil for several weeks to months then using a soft brush / sponge to clean away any dirt etc, while others have used electrolysis. CLR and the like should be avoided as in my experience it does much more damage than good. [/QUOTE]
