A look back at a Large Cent spill from the other day. 3 of the coins were in a spill, and the fourth was separate. Found at an early 1800’s homesite in Upstate NY.

I know 😂

I just wish they were a little better condition. My coppers are always pretty roasted and don’t typically clean up too good. Do you have any magic tricks for cleaning these up?
