Just kidding! Too bad my friend gave them to me in this condition. Bet this destroyed the value of many a coin over the years!

Painful. Here's what you need to do:
1.) Take your friend out to Taco Bell as a thank you gesture.
2.) Take a few extra napkins and wrap the coins in them.
3.) Season with ghost pepper salsa.
4.) Bake on 400° for 30 minutes
5.) After you put out the fire, I guarantee they'll look even worse.
I like those counterstamped ones!
Yes, my friend was my very first platoon sergeant. He gave me these visiting well over 25 years ago. I just keep them as a keepsake from him. He played a solid role in my life. I knew these would require a second look for those who have old type coins that have had a rough life!

Congrats for turning them into crap.

Get some "liver of sulfur" and darken the surfaces. It should help making these coins look more natural.

They all look like culls.
This is how they were when he handed them to me. The post was making light of polished coins.
