that came out very nice, how did you clean it?!

I used Brasso metal cleaner, had to really rub it. Which of course you wouldn't do with a coin or valuable artifact.

I wear one every day. All I can say is my old preacher never took another pain pill after he started wearing his copper penny bracelet and I have not had as much pain in my elbo since I started wearing mine about 17 years ago. :icon_scratch:

Yup, it's arthritis it's supposed to help with. I often clean plain copper (like my tea kettle) with plain lemon juice or even ketchup. Makes it super bright, but then it will soon get a nice patina back.
I think this bracelet is a little nicer than usual because it's not simply flat. Very nice save!

That's it! I'm wearing mine every day now if it helps joint pain. Esp after MDing season, some of the joints are screaming at me. Thanks for the tip!

My wife purchased one similar to yours from a Ute family in Durango Colo. They went to copper because silver was so expensive. She loves hers. Well done.

That's a nice one! Did you dig it? If so, it's in really nice shape. Congrats :icon_thumright:
