They were totally black when i found them? I guess from creek sludge...I boiled them...then cleaned them with Maas...at the time I didnt know any better.

Good looking coins.

It's always amazing to me that cleaning the coins may reduce value.

If you want to put them back in the dirt for about a year you can use my back yard. :D

Actually cleaning coins sometimes makes them look ALOT worst! this coin is nice looking now and may stay nice looking..but most will look good after being cleaned but in a few months or a year they will start to develop toning or patina and look unnaturally toned and crappy. So beware when cleaning your coins especially silver!
