<p>[QUOTE="ice, post: 556010, member: 17129"]When I find a coin metal detecting Silver, wheat, or other copper. I use a Water Pic to remove the dirt. Even if it was a key date I feel the time in the ground will do more damage than removing the mud/dirt from the coin being in the ground. Many copper coins that are real old that I see are basically slabs. I see on many medal detecting sites they all say don't clean your key day/valuable coins. Am I doing any real damage more than being in the ground has already done? Is there a better way to remove dirt/mud? Ice[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
