[QUOTE="k9brain, post: 676485, member: 19310"]If after soaking in distilled water (DI) you're still not satisfied, you can put a pinch of water softener in warm DI to get some of the tougher gunk off. Be very careful, a little goes a long way. Leave for ten-twenty minutes to a couple of hours, depending on how badly encrusted the coins are. Be sure to rinse several time with DI because you just put your coin into a salt solution. Try this on some junk coins to get a feel for it. Though I doubt that you can do much damage to coins that have been buried as long as yours were. Let us know how they turn out![/QUOTE]
