First we begin with "how to" Step-by-step:

1. Put coin with water in a container/jar what ever

2. Put in some backing powder in jar/container with the coin in

3. Let is sit until the water changes color then take it out and rinse under running water to remover backing powder on the coin if there is any, when that is gone gently rub it with your finger. (it is very loose, the oxides) A wet piece of paper will also do.


Do those steps over and over again until it looks fairly good, this might require some practice but it works good for me.
Simple, cheap, easy, not to aggressive...What more could you ask for? ;D

Bla bla bla.. Let's go on to the pics, thats what we want to see isn't it?! :wink:
