<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Andrew McCluskey, post: 3613177, member: 96609&quot;]In the days prior to digital photography, I processed my own black and white film and prints. As is known, black and white film and prints are full of silver.&nbsp; The developing processed removed unused silver and it end up in the chemical we called &quot;fixer&quot;.&nbsp; After processing much film I could leave copper pennies in the fixer for an extended period of time and it would effectively silver plate them by molecular replacement.&nbsp; It made a very nice looking silver plated penny and was easy to accomplish.&nbsp; Making a silver-plated penny was very lo-tech.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
