<p>[QUOTE=&quot;J.T. Parker, post: 24712546, member: 106405&quot;]Hello Mad,</p><p>I have to be a bit of a contrarian here, in that the majority of your coin finds will probably be average (non-collectible) coinage. When I was actively hunting, after checking the dirty coins for any that were perhaps worth collecting, I tumbled the rest in a rock tumbler with white sand &amp; a mixture of salt and vinegar. (This method of cleaning does not work with cents) You have to understand that many times after searching a school, park, or playground I&#039;d end up with $10-20 in filthy, blackened, quarters, nickels &amp; dimes.&nbsp; Over the 10 years detecting I paid for my detector &amp; gas money many times over, just in spare change.</p><p>Silver Finds: I used a Tesoro Golden Saber w/ notch discrimination exclusively and found silver anywhere from 1&quot; to 8&quot; depending on soil conditions &amp; size of the coin.</p><p>Hope this helps,</p><p>J.T.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
