Cleaned silver from yesterday's early coin spill find
Did a little light electrolysis and they came out pretty nice. Unfortunately, the 2 reale is in rough shape and I won't be able to get a date, but I'm sure based on the style (Charles IIII) it dates between 1788 and 1808 so its in line with the others. I'm working on the coppers (they're in a warm peroxide bath), but I doubt they'll look that great as these farm fields are tough on coppers due to fertilizer action.
