    What great coins @Pete.pete , personally I would not do that if you are not keeping them because there is a cachet in someone else "improving" them. They look pretty solid to me unless you mean soak them in water. I love the dark tones of these coins and so many 1787 shillings are cleaned to hell and back.

    Yes there still dirt stuck on them I have but them in some distilled water will use a soft brush to clean . But you are right the patina dose look great .
