Dead zincs. I've been trying to figure out what to do with mine.
I found this video on you tube showing how to remove the zinc,leaving the copper . Making hollow pennies.
Super easy using muriatic acid,available at any home improvement center or pool supply center. (USE CAUTION! its still acid ). Just soak the pennies . That it.
My idea is to remove the zinc then melt the copper into a ingot.
I will be trying it soon. Any thoughts ?
