Monster Electrolysis Tank!!!

[OhioCoinHunter]

Modern coins we find while metal detecting are stained brown. Often old copper coins have a green 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.

Thanks for the good lesson in electrolysis. I was worried about removing the green patina on the indian head...but hey, now I won't do it. Awesome videos!

Thanks for making those videos, Dan!!

Wow, your Injun sure got toasted.
That's the biggest electrolysis home machine I've seen. I have a small one that I use to clean some of my silver coins....works great on them...On my machine, I can't zap my silvers for more than 20-30 seconds, or the coin will start to shed its silver...I always heard you can't use electrolysis successfully on items with a combination of different metals in them, such as clad.

I always thought that the more acidic (lower PH) the solution is, the better the conductivity of the solution? That's why I always use a little vinegar or lemon juice and some salt in my water to make it more acidic, thus lowering the PH.

Some weather you have over there. Yikes!!
