    Why don't you post before and after pics? You boil coins?

    Only those in need of conservation :D and before pics up in previous post but here you go... presently getting boiled in distilled water in a muslin tea bag. This will remove oil and dirt build up on old circulated coins.When done (shortly) it will go into a soak of verdi-care for a few minutes and I'll have after shots for you. Here is the before :D 1825.jpg 1825r.jpg

    Not bad but considering running it through a 2nd boil, but I don't think much more will come off so i think those the finals... Still a nice score for $11 :D
