I got the the uncleaned coins from Ben this last Friday and finally got a chance to take a look at them today. They are looking pretty good I can't wait to see how they turn out. I have given them a quick dip and wipe with distilled water and a fair amount of the dirt came off already. I unfortunately ruined the patina on one with some light brushing with a tooth brush

Anyways here are the pics! Sorry for the quality the light I use for a light source for pics burnt out and I have hadn't had a chance to get it replaced so had to use the flash on my tablet.

Have a couple more coins coming but this is going to have to be the last for awhile. My gf and I are moving in together in a new apartment and have to furnish the place so the funds will be non existant for the next couple months. Definitely going to keep my eye out for a couple of deals though. This should keep me plenty busy for the next little while.

That's the plan there are actually for more but I jumped the gun and had started the pre soak before taking the picture. There will be plenty of pics and posts to come once I am all moved and settled inyo the new place. Then the real collecting can begin.

Whizb4ng - looks like they made it over there in one piece! I've been having good luck with some of the unstables ones so keep at it.

Some of them should be identifiable from the word go - have fun!
