We have found copper coins up to 300 years old and when the are lost with minimal wear, they stand up to the acidic soil in NE much better than heavily worn ones My theory is the newly minted coins are work-hardened from the striking process This phenomenon is known to those who hammer out brass and copper items I have one Indian head penny that came out with a high level of detail after carefully scraping away the dirt and hard coating It was like new when it was lost yet it retained its detail Same with a George the first farthing Amazing Work hardened metal Once it’s worn away, it’s gone

With the low cost of ultrasound cleaning machines they are a very safe way to clean coins

Next time lay your coins on toothpicks, you can lay toothpicks on top of another coin to stack them

Thank you so much for this amazing video! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay) How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

I just ran across this video and I'll add something for that particular coin - during the particular time period when it was minted, the US mint was having difficulty obtaining a higher grade of copper for large cents and half cents In other words, the metal as received had a great deal of contaminants in it, not being as pure as it should have been, but this was all they could obtain during that time period, perhaps due to faulty smelting by the supplier Anyway, the copper coins minted during the 18-teens almost always look rough, regardless of grade because not only did the contaminants in the metal cause more reactivity with the various substances that they came into contact with, and this would especially be true for those coins that became buried in the ground, but also did not strike as well and you rarely come across coins struck during those years in the higher grades Pitting is quite common Your comment about soil Ph is particularly relevant for such coins

Comment from : @mindsparkx

Still looks shit, TBH
Comment from : @cormacdoolin1717

Rather than using a toothpick why not use an old tooth brush, or just a mildly abrasive tooth paste after you have loosened all the grit with H2SO4?
Comment from : @mohunter68

hot hydrogen peroxide works also
Comment from : @crappie72

Comment from : @robkovi3227

Comment from : @ronaldbrigdon7383

Won't the grading company's not grade your coins if cleaned
Comment from : @petenavarrette6122

I’ve always used 30 hydrogen peroxide On my copper and bronze coins Also await electrolysis can assist to
Comment from : @Rubinmebs

In goes my wheat penny finger crossed 🤞🏽
Comment from : @jell-oputin8036

Electalisis use 12volt baking sodano rubbing
Comment from : @geraldpreston817

It works! I had 3 wheats I soaked for about 30 hrs( since I forgot they were in the solution), I could not get a date off them before soaking After a light toothbrushing and the 30 hour soak I now can easily make out they are '41,'42, and '44 Sadly no '43 Thanks for the great tip and please keep up the good work We appreciate you

I just wanna add my 2 cents
Comment from : @Janotes

I use a rock tumbler
Comment from : @joshuawilkerson7740

If you want to be totally blown away - research THE UGLY BOX and what it does - buy the book for $20 first to understand how it works! That coin of yours would end up AMAZING if done right since it had little wear before being lost

Nice tip Merrill 👋

Dig On Merrill !
Comment from : @ladigger362

I have a piece of toast I'm going to try that on
Comment from : @EnuffsEnuff318

Over 200 years old Awesome
Comment from : @kndvolk

just like when you use it on your body, the organics left on the surface of the coin are probably whats causing the fizzing re-action
Comment from : @dawnconner6123

I sometimes spilled a little coffee on my dirty coins, and after a couple days that eats away at any of the corrosion
Comment from : @woody6856

Have fun!!
Comment from : @woody6856

Who would have thunk peroxide see 🤔
Comment from : @714metaldetecting

Thanks for posting your videos I enjoy them Hot peroxide is what are use microwave your peroxide for about a minute throw your copper coins in, heated peroxide accelerates the process It really does work miracles Now you’re coin has to have detail to begin with After the hot peroxide process and some light circular rubbing with #000 extra fine steel wool, I dip my coins in meted candlewax rub them down leaving some wax on them Hairdryer that for a shiny finish believe me it works if I could post pictures I’d show you before and after ‘s I do this to all my large cents and British coppersbrbrFYI instead of expensive Andres pencils buy bamboo skewers and sharpen them in the pencil sharpener
Comment from : @andrewpaulmarussich7180

I know what you mean by some soils preserve better Here in Montana many of the the v nickels or buffalos can occasionally come out still silver in color I've had wheat pennies come out a bright copper color like they were just dropped I think heavily fertilized places like farmer's fields tend to destroy coins more Neat tip
Comment from : @DirtyMoneymetaldetecting

Must try this thanks
Comment from : @patodwyer275

Awesome! 🤓💖 With each dirty coin that comes up from the ground, your presence will be in mind, …The day that ham was on the floor 😅 I happen to have the chicken container I wonder if that will make any difference🤔😁
Comment from : @robinkhan7468

Boil the coins in Hydrogen peroxide!
Comment from : @robertsalmi3594

I've used peroxide for years on copper and bronze coins It often works well at removing dirt, especially when the base metal of the coin is in tact The only down side is that it will darken the patina
Comment from : @cladhopper41

Thanks for the tip I heard WD40 cleans coppers pretty good too Although i've never tried it

Another method of cleaning copper is submerging them in haggen daz for 10 hours 😁
Comment from : @thedude232

I'm going to try this right now!
Comment from : @angelamillard6418

It does work Best when slighly warm I've floated a small glass bowl with some 2 H2O2 solution in a larger bowl of hot water Dropped button in the H202 bowl Design finally came out Do not do this on guilt buttons it will eat up the coating
Comment from : @metaldetectingthenortheast1294

Spittina awesome Merrill
Comment from : @plugsfordays648

Had great luck with the vinegar slush and a dash of peroxide on a Buffalo nickel12 hours on each side and right back to silver color Didn't help with the corrosion from living under ground, but very pleased with the results
