Yesterday's badly corroded silver before and after pics

I took Metalev4's advice and made a electrolysis setup. I figured worst case scenario I'd ruin one of the dimes.
I had to do something. Just can't have my found silver looking like dug clad. Here's the pics of it working and the end results. I feel better now. Again, I would never do this on a coin I even suspected of being worth something.

Re: Silver

They turned out great! I use electrolysis for all of my common silver. I have been told that as long as you dont leave it in to long the coins should not be damaged at all, however I would never use it on anything with value.

I want to clean up all the coins (clad etc) I have to go to the bank would this work on ALL coins not just silver?
Or would a tumbler be better?
