  1. Cleaning Canadian Coins

    Good Evening All- I'm looking to tap into the wisdom of coin collectors and inquire on coin cleaning methods. I have a small mountain of Canadian coins that are badly corroded and therefore not useable. I'm guessing they were under water (Wishing pod or the like) for some time. (Pictures...
  2. Mute Canadian Coins

    I'm reaching out to the Treasure.net experts for advise ! I have about 50 lbs of misc. Canadian Coins that are not fit for circulation. Dented, Twisted, Chipped and the like. The RCM (Royal Canadian Mint) does not accept mute coin for reclaim as does the US mint so over the years it has just...

  8. Five Barber day

    I found myself today, out on the field. It was a mild sunny day in December, in good old Massachusetts. There I stood with my E-trac in one hand, and a nice steamy Cumberland Farms coffee in the other. As I stood there and took in the scenery I knew it was going to be a good day. Aside from...

  12. Ace 250 and Canadian clad

    Hi all, I have read some of the threads talking about canadian clad and how they are mostly steel in composition. I'm sure this is the reason I'm not finding much besides pennies on my hunts. In fact, I have found pretty much only pennies on the jewelery mode setting. Other then digging every...
