Hey, guys, PACO tumbled my Classic Head half cent that I found at one of our farms last year. Prior to tumbling, it had no date and was hideous looking. Well, after PACO tumbled it for an hour and a half, it was quite a beauty.

Hey Zoy

Sure looks nice from one without a date to one that you can read.

what was in the tumbler? Aquarium rock, bb's, or ???

Thanks for sharing and showing others the before and after pictures. This will give more of us confidence to do likewise

MM and Sanat, PACO had some red rocks in the tumbler; they are used for copper and bronze metals.
