Here's the latest efforts, the hammered coin is a short cross of probably John moneyer Able, London mint.

id be happy with a day of detecting like that !!!

It certainly beats watching tv Allen

How can you say that when we have programs like Dancing On Ice

Did you know my Minelab suit doubles as a Skating outfit?

Oh Gawd I just read this! hahahaha
That, is a scary thought!

Don't worry, it's nothing gay, just speed skating.

Will you be skating in the olympics in Vancouver?

Nope. Too busy training for April .... The Romeo Olympics! I have some payback to give if you happen to notice the bottom left of the T-net where he keeps reminding me!

Great coin Rob...wants some bleach on the bottom

SS

Does bleach work well for removing oxidation from silver coins?

I would love to know the answer to this question as well.
Great finds Rob! I love the hammered.
Cheers,
Dave.

The bleach blackens the Silver, highlighting the legends, but it can also removes Iron staining

SS

Thanks! I was hoping there was something to take that heavy tarnish off. Hard stuff like silver that has been sitting in water for years.
I do get the odd silver with a rust stain on it, so now I know to try bleach.

Muddy....I have had Silver coins in lemon juice for two weeks trying to remove staining, some times you can't remove it, or at least I couldn't on this one

Great coin Rob...wants some bleach on the bottom Nice cut half Colin, without trauling through my Seaby's what is it (looks Norman /late Saxon). Send it down to me I will clean it using electrolysis (best way by far on good quality silver coins only) lemon juice is only good on pancakes.
