I was going to try it on a coin, but never got around to it.
Since it has been raining just about every day here, I managed to rig up a little electrolysis setup and dropped the axe head I found into it, then within 5 minutes the bucket of distilled water and salt looks like this.
I took it out once, I thought I could see a faint stamp near the butt that I hope will help me identify it, but I might have to sand blast a bit.
However, this electrolysis process is pretty interesting so far.
