Ave Burak!
I personally would toss them in warm oil for a couple of weeks, then use a needle to see if I could get under any of the crud and get it to lift off. If that didn't work, but the crud did seem to soften a bit, I'd toss them back in the oil. If there was no change from the initial oil soak, I'd try distilled water for a couple of weeks. These can be the most rewarding when you can get the crud to lift off in big chunks
Jbaran certainly knows
his stuff, and I agree completely with the above. But...(well, anyone who knows me knew this was coming) my 1st thought on seeing your coins was the dreaded
electrolysis as the final solution if Joe's above method fails to
work...with just a few caviots before turning to the Dark
Side.
1) Weigh each coin. "Crusty" coins such as yours, Burak, more often that not, are very under-weight as for the coin's size. If that is the case, the coin's metal has leeched away to where no amount of time and soaks (or
electrolysis) will allow the coin to be cleaned. Rather, you'll only have a
bit of "foamy" metal, with no detail, ever.
2) If the
weight seems correct, follow Joe's method; at least for 2-3 months...or as long as you care. Again, use a needle, or a common
dental pick to probe beneath the crust to ascertain if there is firm/sound metal. If the metal appears to be sound, you may want to continue Joe's method...or use
electrolysis.
Just my thoughts,
Best, Kevin
