4 norwegian coins richer :D

[Snusmumrikken]

Hello!

Today I went to my grandparents for some MD training. I got lucky finding 3 nails. Some alufoil of some old candy and some other aluthingy...
I also found 4 coins.

1 krone from 1956 as the oldest
1 krone from 1973
1 krone from 1982
10 kroner from 1983

Is there anyway to get these ones shiny again ?

Yes, get yourself a rock tumbler and add fishtank gravel and water and a bit of lemon juice. Tumble the silver colored coins and the copper in different batches with clean water each time. A vibratory tumbler with crushed walnut shells (you should be able to get from a pet supply store) and some Flitz will polish the coins to a high luster again.

Congrats on your coins! And a BIG WELCOME TO T-NET! Hope you find more good things next time. I've been detecting for 2 years on the western coast of USA. The oldest coin I've found is a lovely 1923 Peace Silver Dollar which was lying on the surface ground of a field. It was not far from where my son and I had detected several times before. I found it without the detector! So whenever you go detecting, glance around to catch those "eyeball" items! HAVE FUN! Andi
