Nothing like double florins to put a smile on the dial, well done.

B5 what do you clean them up with ?

Noice moit :Y:

 

[B5MECH]

B5 what do you clean them up with ?
:Y:

Citric acid and hot water but a weak mix in a tiny little sauce bowl so I don't use much citric up let it sit for a few minutes and brush it with a soft art paint brush, the grey ones are harder and there is a more brutal way
After neautralize it with bi-carb soda
If you have pitted ones you can finger rub polish them with moist bi-carb
They're not polished just pressed so it wouldn't polish them, it sort of leaves fine abrasive scratches
They came up nice and quick them ones :Y:
Edit should have said there not over cleaned :lol: :lol:

[golddiggerart]

Those florins came up a treat and are in great condition, they would command top price of say $1 lol Just kidding mate they look awesome. :lol: :lol:

 

[silver]

I recon a coin shop might offer you at least $2 each, far better to hang on to them IMHO.

Thanks AR :Y: You know your having a bad day when you break a fishing rod for sale while trying to measure it :/ while tearing the rest of my toe nail off that was taped on :N: Trying to figure out if I'll be able to get away with soldering the split back together
The large loop on a Pastime PowerRods Beach rod 8) 8.(

Small map gas touch, 50/50 solder with frozen wet rags and ice cubes to stop the heat from burning the string?
Am I pushing my luck a little far
