Cashing In Clad

[PI-Man]

I like to find out where Joe D and F350 are hunting and seed the area with the crusty clad.  That way I get them to get rid of them for me ? 

Tumbler for an hour.  If the cheap pennies do not clean up they get pitched (yea a shame).

I have 2 grades of wire wheels on my grinder. Coarse and fine.  I hold each coin with a pliers, and it takes about 3 seconds per coin to clean. All coins come out shiny when Im done. The rotted zincs I throw away.  The coins  have no collectors value when cleaned this way, but you can run them thru the bank or spend them.

Just a few seconds with cleaning clad using a power driven wire wheel,  restores the quarter on the left to look close to new. 

Using a pliers and safety glasses is a must!

 (CLAD) (First) Once you get rid of the crud, Tumbled ...Then... salt and vinegar soak, WATCH THEM it doesn't take long, DON'T OVER DO IT.  Then tumble them again, Takes the stain right out of them. BUT if you over do it you get pink coins.

Don't tumble or soak your pennies with the other coins! Clean them separately. ?

I went to the Dollar Tree and got Awesome , it dose the best of anything i have ever used. Makes dimes and Quarters nice. Make sure you dont get a penny in with other coins. All my Zink cents are bad, if you melt them and pour it in a tube, can be cut and makes nice rings, looks like silver.
