Re: Rotten lousy, stinkin' rat-@#%* night. Post somethin' cheerful for me.

In the mid 80’s I personally scoured the area north of the Port Mansfield Jetties, not with a metal detector, but by walking the wind and water eroded back dunes. At the time, metal detectors were not allowed to be used within the boundaries of Padre Island National Seashore and the Texas Antiquities Act forbid the removal… -

Re: Does anyone know what a mint sewn bag of 1964 Lincolns is worth?
I know a dealer in a small town about 65 miles from me that has a back room with bags from the early 60's up to the 90's stacked to the ceiling with bags of cents. I know when the 95-P DDO was first being found he had 2-3 bags of 95-P's for sale with the earlier date stamp on the bags. He also had a couple of bags of… -

A… -
Re: Treating copper coins with oil...

I've used mineral oil and olive oil on corroded copper with good results. Takes a while to loosen the crud up, but can then be wiped off with a cotton towel. I'm sure that's less destructive than a wire brush... the only other method I'm aware of, but if the chemists here know something I don't, feel free to enlighten me.…
