I have to dig in my other device to retrieve some conglomerate photos kevin....somewhere I have multiple threads about conglomerates, and I have retrieved and recovered some great treasures Kevin !! Non ferrous object can often be recovered with careful cracking. Sometimes a bath of muriatic acid and water can be used to dissolve encrustation from delicate objects. I have recovered many great objects from bahamian conglomerates including a beautiful gold filled pocket watch. It takes all kinds of techniques for some tough items and iron item are the toughest to recover without damaging. Kevin ill get in depth with some techniques and examples later tonight....I have to work if you can believe that !! Let me try and find the gold watch thread !!
If you have coins in concretion, electrodes in salt water works fast.
