another method of coin cleaning

[Leslie Sarkany]

Next time you get a silver coin Les, get some thick tin foil or if not double it over, spit on both sides of the coin, then wrap the foil over it relatively tight. After a few seconds you’ll here it crackle if you put it close to your ears and if you smell it, it will smell like a rotten egg. When The crackling stops remove the foil and give the coin a rinse. Clean all my silver coins this way, roman medieval ,Saxon etc no fancy stuff.
