Monster Electrolysis Tank!!!:yikes:

[OhioCoinHunter]

Modern coins we find while metal detecting are stained brown. Often old copper coins have a [size=medium]green[/size] crust-like cement. Many of the metal objects we find no longer have eye appeal, are unidentifiable and need a good cleaning. In the following videos I use my [size=large]MONSTER[/size] electrolysis tank to clean:

-a large pile of brown coins. Can you clean a bunch of coins in a short period of time?

-a single wheat cent with heavy duty green corrosion. Even tumbling won't help this wheatie!

-an unidentifiable copper tag. What the heck is this thing?

-a sterling silver fork with dark stains. Will the dark stains come off?

-an Indian Head Cent with a nice green patina. What do Indians really look like after the pretty green patina is removed?

You will learn the answers to these questions. And there's more!

You will also learn the basics of building and operating an electrolysis tank.

Excellent and informative video. I think the tank did a great job on the silver fork and the V nickel and I'm glad you showed the IH cent. I don't even tumble my IH cents if they have that green patina - I like the look of that patina too much to clean it off. I just rinse the dirt off and coat the coin with a little CARE (an oil based preservative sold by coin shops). Maybe the basket of coins didn't get too clean due to the fact that their sides (obverse and reverse) was not facing the lining of the lining of the tank but the top and bottom of the tank where there was no lining. If you could mount the coins (like between two screens) to face the liner, you may get a better result. The tank sure did a nice job on the steel stuff. Thanks for your time and effort on this video - it's a must see for anyone doing electrolysis. (PS I hope that wasn't the storm that went through the Toledo area about 2 weeks ago and did all that damage). HH
