    Im soooo jealous of these people. I have a relatively below medium coin collection id say (idk how much is a lot, but i have about over 150+ coins (about a jar and a half) and over half of them are from yugoslavia) and every time i see a coin collection im just overly fascinated about where it came from, how rare it is or basically learn anything about the coin. Literally everywhere i go i always try and see if i can find any lost coins lmao.

    What a crazy hunt, amazing Olympic & Paralympic finds Christopher 😊 I have a feeling that the coins have been in water...probably a wishing well. Lafta had some grotty coins too a few days back and we said they could be a workers coins that they had found while cleaning a festive field or carnival and kept them over time....but that many...I would say a wishing well, fantastic video buddy 👍👍👍👍

    I got an old 50p in my change a few months back. It was a 1970’s celebration of the uk joining the ‘common market’ with the 12 hands, one hand being female, supposedly in recognition of our Queen Elizabeth. I gave it to my (adult) daughter as she thought it was interesting to pair up with the ‘Brexit’ coin she had for her son.

  • @leighnisbett9691
    @leighnisbett9691 Před rokem

    If you get a grubby coin you can clean them up using a little bit of white vinegar ,washing up liquid and hot water ,you leave the coins to soak in this mixture until it's cool enough to place your skin into and once out of the mixture clean under pouring water to remove the mixture and wipe with a soft cloth ,the white vinegar and washing up liquid gets rid of the dirt and grime .

    Put them in a big jar of vinegar and hook a 2volt battery up to it both on a metal rod and place in the jar overnight or two nights and they will be proper clean when you wash them off with hot soapy water and a hard finger sized brush it worked a treat for me.

  • @creator000
    @creator000 Před 4 lety +1

    I thought a wishing well stash. One of the charities could have fished them out and bagged them up. I used to run one for the blind years ago and a lot of the coins came out looking like those. when they had been in a while.

    • @wesleyreese5987
      @wesleyreese5987 Před 4 lety +1

      Noooo bad idea. Maybe it's fine other places in the world but in the U.S doing that ruins value, even doing it by soaking it is risky. They recommend that you only clean them if you cannot tell anything about it, and soak it in acetone then leave it to air dry.

  • @dablakh0l193
    @dablakh0l193 Před 4 lety

    It may also be the markings of being in a house fire. The intense heat coupled with the water used to fight the fire can cause the loss of detail as well as an accelerated corrosion of both the top metal as well as the base metal.

    Lol. When I lived in France I came across some euro coins and french franc coins in a bowl with what looked like old dish wash powder & cigarette ash. I cleaned them the best I could. I did keep the franc coins and spent the euro coins. Some were in deplorable shape to where the metal bubbles and was chipping off. Even the grocery store self checkout wouldn’t take some. Took me over a month to spend about 3€ worth of 0,01€, 0,02€, & 0,05€ coins (the majority of them)

  • @kendee4421
    @kendee4421 Před 4 lety

    Some metal detectorist has cashed in all the coins they've found on beaches and fields. The bad ones look like beach finds affected by seawater. The reason there are commemoratives among them is because they were probably lost not long after they were issued.
