[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 3424309, member: 87809"]Was looking for info about cleaning silver coins and saw your thread and the OP message. Really impressive, congrats, your denarius is awesome, fantastic job! Also the one posted by [USER=88227]@jb_depew[/USER] looks great. After watching the video DIY - Cleaning Silver, I felt encouraged to try it on a modern silver coin (from 1919, 0.900 silver), which had a lot of black something (I was so carried away that I didn't think about taking a picture). The end result is really impressive, all the black something is gone and the coin looks great. Thank you so much for sharing this information, really really helpful! Just have a question, do you know what could happen to a coin if the aluminium foil is not used? I poured hot water into a steel pan, set the coin into the water and washing soda on top of the coin, but I completely forgot to put an aluminium foil into the pan :oops:However, the water with the carbonate soda (washing soda) was completely brownish after I removed the coin and the coin looks just great.[/QUOTE]
