    How to clean a butt load of wheat pennies?

    How many is a butt load you might ask. Well its different than for everyone I guess. Anyway, I have like 300+ wheat pennies? What is the best way to clean them to just be able to see most of the dates? I have used peroxide for 5-10 at once but in not sure if thats the best way. Any Ideas?

    The rock tumble is a good idea. But wouldn't it destroy a key date? But I cant read the date on most of them now so I guess it doesn't matter.
