Geesh, talk about a good day. Fantastic silver pulls, and job well done
I see pitting on the coins, did you put them through electrolysis?

Hi Joe" i just cleaned them with baking soda & water the mercs were abused by the desert sands over many yrs
Mike,
I see that one Merc is a 1919 and the other is a 24? It's too bad there is such an eroded shape. Great coins. They must have been lost near those time periods.
