<p>[QUOTE="Kentucky, post: 2805775, member: 33176"]Take a toothbrush and use a wire cutter or some such to clip the bristles until they are half length. This gives a stiffer brush that has no possibility of scratching. A copper or brass brush may be used judiciously to remove some of the harder stuff and a dental pick can be used for fine work. At this stage for these coins, putting some detergent in the water wouldn't hurt either. The third one is interesting with the quadriga on the back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
