| Crock-Pot with DW/WS Solution | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I'm using the
cheapest version Wallie World had. It was 9 bucks, holds 2 quarts, and only
has one heat setting; low. For my first trials, this seems sufficient. Using
a solution of distilled water and approximately 1.5 tablespoons of washing
soda per quart. It has been on for a couple hours, and the bottom is barely warm (the legs that come in contact with the surface it rests upon), so my safety concerns are met. Tom and Tony of CommonBronze got me interested in slow-low heat possibilities, so here's my first experiment. Here's the last of my uncleaned's from Helvetica, which not only gives a nice assortment everytime, but is also the author of the famous and indispensable spread sheets of many type coins. |

| Nice mixture of coins with different states of cleanliness, from the barely dusty Fel Temp, to the odd shaped larger coin with encrustation, to the tiny AE4 that has a white encrustation and even the Islamic (I think that's what it is) with a partial patina. I'm pretty sure this won't harm the coins, and hope that it will speed the cleaning up. I only wish I could somehow add a pump to it. I am still thinking the movement experiment (not posted yet... still waiting on another shipment of coins) holds alot of promise. After a week, they seem to be about as clean as 3 weeks in still water. But that's for another listing heh. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
