<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2600688, member: 15199"]Welcome , realizing how much damage may have already occurred, and the possible current deterioration, I would put them in a bucket of tap water and a few drops of detergent, mix and let stand for a day, and then rinse dirt away and separate out any desirable coins. These I would further clean with tap water, with last rinse of distilled water, followed by a dip in either 91% isopropyl alcohol ( walmart )or other such as acetone if you are familiar with its safety needs) and let air dry. Further treatment would be considered based on any perceived value of the specific coins. MOST will be spenders. Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
