It did come out good. Can you tell me your process step by step?

Thanks

What are you using to polish them? And is there any correlation to size of relic to amount of water. Seems like some people are using a big container for a small relic such as coins. Thanks

I use a cleaner for glass stove tops. Pretty abrasive so don't use on any key dates or valuable items. But it works good

I usually fill my container half way with water. No measurements at all

Well I built my first electrolysis device using an old cord for a rechargeable electric shaver. The output information indicated 15 volts and 350 mamps. It was very simple and worked well. I left the coin in solution for only a couple of 30 sec - 1 min rounds. The water got really dirty quickly, but I still can't see any information on the coin. I guess I have nothing to lose by letting it stay long. Any advice?

I use my car battery charger for mine. The the 3 mamp works well for most things. If it's really crusty, I bump it up to the quick charge. Most things take 1 to 5 min. Kevin
