This morning's lone find !

[Ed (Upstate NY)]

Another tough day at the old park. Park Pirate did alright with a merc and the ipod but after 3 hours all I had to show was a 1900 indian head cent, a modern Jefferson nickel and a memorial cent. The indian cleaned up real nice after a hot peroxide soaking.

Nice ED I had to get out of there just wasn't feeling it today. I relocated to bowling ally park and scored a shield nickel and an 1880 Indian.

Ed --

NICE! Can you detail the "hot peroxide" thing? I think that Injun cleaned up beautifully...I'd like to try it on some of my Injuns and wheats...is there more to it than just "dunk it in hot peroxide?"

Not really. I just pour a half inch of peroxide in a small bowl. Zap in microwave for 30 seconds. Drop the penny in and let bubble for a few minutes. I then hit it with a toothbrush and repeat if necessary. Just remove the penny before reheating the peroxide. After it looks nice i rinse with soap & water and rub with soft cloth.
