cleaned up my silver.....well most of it

[Leslie Sarkany]

Suffering! It is that time of year when a "digaholic" does just that. Withdrawal is a bitch. Philately helps....a bit. Start at "A" for Aden. Up to 'G" for Ghana already. May run out of the alphabet way too soon before the spring thaw.

Decided that this morning was a good one to clean up some of the silver(mind you the domestic clean up came first) that my Garrett family (Freedom 3 plus, AT Pro and Seahunter mk11) had found. Mind you all did not come clean.

Used the old glass pie plate lined with tin foil and baking soda trick. The ones that remained dark there is no hope for as they came from the ocean or shoreline.

Got to ask me son....................HOW ARE YOU COPING?

That's a great showing of Silver. Successful year I'd say for sure.
I have got that many coins in a season before, but never the amount of jewlery, don't water hunt very much.

As far as the salt water Silver finds they can be cleaned.

Salt water Silver before.
...wait for edit...8:16


Salt water Silver After.


The thing is with common silver, just not worth the effort. (same price dirty, or clean.)

Man, that's a jeesly big pile o' silver! Wow! Was that from just this year? Are those 50c pieces on the right?

Going thru the DTs and spring is still 2 months away...

Cheers,
DS
