These were given to me by my Aussi friend Tony U.S 20mm relics they were dug in Darwin, Strauss Airstrip did electrolysis and I think they turned out great. Here are some before and after pics and last pic is a sample of what they looked like.

Nice finds.
Did you keep some of them in their 'as found' condition ?

No I didn't Steve they have a tendency to shed like a dog and I didn't want to put them in a bag and be lost in the closet,these will display well.
