  8. Sort of I'm a decontamination validation engineer
  9. You talking about an ultra sonic cleaner If so ill tell you how they work as i validate them for hospital use,They basically send water molecules from one end of the bath to the other to validate i place a strip of tin foil in after a set period of time i remove the foil and it will look like a mini shotgun has been fired at it the weight of the foil will drop by over 50% Now if you use an ultrasonic cleaner use on its lowest setting for a short time.Do not buy a fixed power one you could destroy the coin HTH

  19. Sorry I'll call it an early strike (for now) really must buy a macro camers as its just a scan your looking at Can i call it AUNC or is it EF ? ta again

  21. Hi all just bought myself a 1863 penny its got a very very good strike.Now how can i tell weather its just a unc or a bronze proof? I'll post a piccy when i get home ,but what i can tell you is its very very dark colour but i assume the normal coins turn this colour is the weight different? confused and ive just bought a few nice looking pennies so sorry but expect more stupid questions
