1895 IHP ends Dry Streak + Silver Dime!

[PenguinDetectsCA]

Today was a great hunt. I broke my my ~1 year no Indian head penny dry streak.
It is in great condition and I love the green color
And finding silver is always great

Ok I will
The house surprised me, it was supposedly built 1921 but 3 coins were 1912 or older.

Thanks Antiquarian.
Do you have any tips for cleaning? I'm really bad at it so I usually leave most of my finds how they are.
I would like to know at least how to get the dirt off my finds without damaging them.

To clean you can use Andres pencils, available at Hobby Lobby and others.

I've had good luck soaking IHP's in distilled water for a few days to loosen the dirt and wiping them lightly with a Qtip.

Thank you Sibbley and Gene, I will try it out
