PimentoUK Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 It's nice to find big silver, even if the silver quality is lacking. I've not found many half-crowns myself, and I'm sure all were 50%, the older Sterling ones have eluded me so far. If you didn't know, 50% silver coins clean up well with a soak in a weak acid solution. An example being diluted lemon juice, approx 5 : 1 dilution ratio. Brush with a soft brush occasionally. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
