<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 678261, member: 15199&quot;]In all fairness, they probably aren&#039;t worth the cost in your time and any chemicals ( even distilled water ) you may use. If you are going to sell for silver value, leave the dirt on. If you really want to keep them as your first, and you <b>recognize the difference </b>between &quot;dug&quot; coins and collectors coins of value, then realistically use a soft tooth brush and detergent water and gently take off the dirt and then rinse well with tap water and dry. I think dug coins whether modern or ancient falls under different rules for cleaning than others. There aren&#039;t many worse things you can do to a coin than bury it for several decades or centuries. IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
