Your time would be better spent detecting, you will soon find better things to clean.
Good start keep going.

Hi S12aun,ok....If you want fondle an I'm up,here's what i did (refers to new coinage ONLY !!)
Get your electric drill,put wire brush into the drill chuck.
Place coin to be cleaned into a vice wit sufficient coin protruding,gently pass rotating brush onto the coin untie it's sufficiently clean enough to use...?Works BRILLIANTLY on coins off-the-shelf beach....Very,very passable....Good hunting..👍
