Thanks for watching!
Will the electrolosis work on Copper Coins as well ?

yes and no. With Copper being a more metal, electrolysis will likely result in more damage being caused- if you have a crusty penny (that isn't a valuable date) it is worth a try.
I have three silver dimes cleaned and I wiished they weren't. Great video and thanks for the tip!

James, if you want to add a natural looking black patina to your coins, pop them in a small Ziploc bag with a mashed hard boiled egg and leave for a few hours or over night....The coins will go black and then you can give them a light polish with a liquid silver polish and just remove some of the black off the raised parts of the coin...Works a treat!
What do you mix your bi-carb and salt with is it just water or something else

Hi Tim, just water. Distilled water is best but tap water will work
Hi CBK, does it corrode the coin at all? I have very thin early shilling from 1914, and it is very worn and brown dark coloured.

it can damage the coin if you over do it- so best to do only on coins that are not key dates or rare (do your homework first!) and best done for short bursts, until you get it clean- don't set it up and leave it unattended!

how do you test silver.

it really depends on the item- with coins or other items that may carry a high $ value, taking it to a precious metal buyer to have XRF tested would be best. If it is jewellery or a decorative item and you can not see any hallmarks, there are silver / gold test kits that can be purchased- they have different test acids / solutions that when a drop is placed on the item will react in a known way if it silver vs silver plated etc
Is this vid dubbed. Lip sync a bit off 😊
Cleaning ok, do not rub them.
The information here is too vaguely unclear and not detailed enough.
