How do you get them so clean? No harm done?

They where found using the stock coil as the EX is sent back because of too much wear for only 20 hours use (no coil cover)the coins where cleaned like this and is a safe way to clean old silver.
you get a small plastic dish and place cooking foil around the inside dull side up and ad a t.spoon of Soda crystals pour boiling water in and drop the coin in it for a few minutes then remove and clean dirt and encrustations off with cotton buds or a soft toothbrush (soaking the brush in the hot water) repeat this process then a quick clean with a cotton bud and lemon juice to polish it up. It took me 1 hour to do both coins.
