You sure seel that coin as it worst that much and maybe you sure buy something you like to try.
I would REALLY love to get something restored by you. Please let me know if you would be interested. Love your vids!
I am curious as to what you would have done, or had to do, if the lead test was positive.
Awesome job, by the way.
@TimothySielbeck had to remove the paint with paint remover gel and just after that I can sandblast the metal parts 👍
Do you know what the coolest part is? It's being able to see the products as if they were new. It feels like going back in time. There are no pictures or videos of these items... unless you were there, you never were going to see and appreciate the beauty of these items. That's why this guy is a miracle worker..!!
You go man !!
Thanks a lot man and glad you enjoyed 😊
I worked Security at the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village in Alberta, Canada for many years. It’s an outdoor Air Museum showcasing the early life of Ukrainian settlers in the area. Complete with Homes, Businesses, Churches etc. Many have antiques and several have been restored to show what they looked like in their day. Lots has been left alone too. I had access to the historical library, blueprints, restoration records and the archives rooms. It was a great experience and I learned so much. This is a great video.
@veronamartin5285 thank you very much and glad you enjoyed 😊
for future reference, leaving the original patina ON the coins makes them much more valuable. do not polish your old coin collections, people. collectors want them fully as they are, no metal removed by attempts at polishing. just leave the patina.
I collect for myself and polish every coin to a mirror finish except for my 1920's silver dollars which I carry in my pocket
Polishing coins kills collector value, always has.
Indeed the actual vale of that coin is less than 10€. Just a regular silver 700 coin, very common. Clean it if you want, it's just nice anyway. Good job bringing back to life that toy!
The value lies in the holder.
Not saying anyone should go on defacing priceless history, though if it is worth more to you such as i see no harm.
It's extremely obvious the guy put the coin in there for the video.
Which for the record I have no problem with, and love this creator... I just find it extremely silly how viewers... it's not gullible it's... more like lack of critical thinking 😂
Powder coating always makes everything look so nice and clean
yeah I really do love that electro-powder system.
and you also get birds chirping at the end!
yeap,thousand times better 🎉
Im glad youre still making these videos. Had a rough couple years, very soothing to come back and see these restorations still going.
Thanks a lot , glad you still enjoy them. Wish you all the best 😊
It's a great hobby actually being able to restore some of the oldest stuff we don't use anymore for a new purpose to use them again
I agree wish I could do stuff like this
Adorable. I had a cash register when I was a child. Brings back memories. ❤very nicely restored. ❤❤
Thank you very much and glad you enjoyed ❤️ wish you all the best
This is so cool! I was initially disappointed that you didn't fully restore the numbers and just clear coated them, but seeing the result, I'm glad you did that. Cool to keep something still in its original aged condition!
Thank you very much and glad you enjoyed! Wish you all the best 😊

I love your videos, man. No exposition, no history lessons, no drawn-out explainers. You just show the start, the process, the work, and the results. It's beautiful!
Thank you very much man , glad you enjoy. Wish you all the best 😊
The little cash register turned out fabulous! What an incredible job,! I love it!😊
Thanks a lot 😊
When you said “I’m curious about what’s inside” and a pound of rust came out I was like, yeah saw that coming!
Awesome job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it ! Thank you very much 😊
I thought the same here 😂
Fantastic Restoration! I especially loved the sand blasting today. The dirt and paint just melting away was incredibly calming. Thank you!
Thanks a lot , glad you enjoyed 😊 you know I try my best every time
That's one of the most enjoyable parts of any restoration video for me. I could watch the sandblaster work all day. Very satisfying.
@woreoutdrummer1861 thanks a lot and glad you enjoyed 😊
When l was a little girl l would play 'shop' in my grandmother's pantry. Talking to myself and pretending I was serving people! I would have given anything for a cash register or a Till as we called them back in the day! The transformation of that old nondescript toy is truly magical. You are indeed a technical wizard. I remain in awe of your achievements. Thank you.
Thanks a lot and glad you enjoyed 😊 wish you all the best and have a nice day
Me too! Great comment!❣️🤗
Awesome job, especially the price indicators real labour of love. Thank you also for showing when things don't go right.
Thanks a lot and glad you enjoyed 😊
That coin is such a cool find. Lovely work!
Thank you very much 😊wish you all the best
GREAT JOB!!! I love the toy cash register!
Thanks a lot , glad you enjoyed 😊
Another GREAT resto! Sand blasting, powder coating, nickel plating!!!! Good call preserving the numbers!
Thanks a lot 😊
I love the lack of talking. It made for a much more enjoyable video. The wide variety of tools, material and the time it took to restore this childs toy needed no explanation. Impressive work. Being a bird lover I laughed at your using bird song to express the passage of time. Clever. It took a lot of different skills to restore this. You're very talented. Thank you for the enjoyable video. I'm glad you found the coins. They were well earned.
Thank you very much and glad you enjoyed 😊 wish you all the best
Damn the coin paid for the register and restoring it. Great find!!!!
This is almost identical to the one I had as a child. Thank you for the memories.
Glad I bring you back some nice memories. Cheers 😊
A really beautiful job.................. a pleasure to watch, thank you.
Thanks a lot , glad you liked it 😊
Great work David, I really like that you left the patina on the parts with the numbers on and protected them with clear coat.
And your video quality is flawless like always!
Thanks a lot mate ! I’m waiting your new video 😊 cheers
For being such a simple toy for kids, that it sure had a lot of parts. Powder coating really makes a difference in these projects. Very nice!
Thank you very much , glad you liked it 😊
The birds chirping while the powder coat is curing is the best part :)
Glad you like it 😊
Personally, I prefer the natural sounds of the restoration, not added sounds. BUT, if you enjoyed it, good for you.
@zacharyarchbold4097 I understand you but in that part you can’t have a natural sound because that edit , when the parts are powder coated and looks like silk and in 3 seconds they become shiny , it is made at 2500x speed . If I let the natural sound , will be a creepy sound which you don’t want to feel it 😅 that’s why I used some birds chirping . I had to choose from bird chirping and forest rain, both are loved by the people who watch ASMR videos.
@@CoolAgainRestoration Oh, that makes so much sense. Thank you. BTW, your videos are my favorite restoration videos on RUclips.
@zacharyarchbold4097 thanks for that , wish you all the best 😊
Best restoration channel by far! Congrats!
Thanks a lot , glad you enjoyed. Wish you all the best 😊
I really liked that you kept the original numbers, added alot of character to this toy! great work
Thanks a lot , glad you enjoyed 😊
Outstanding! I LOVE seeing the powdercoat paint turn all shiny and glossy! The whitening treatment dod an amazing job. Gorgeous!
Thanks a lot , glad you liked it 😊
I'm from Romania and I love your work. Keep it up!
Thank you very much mate 👍
Como siempre tu trabajo es impecable. Saludos desde Santiago de Chile🇨🇱
Thank you very much 😊 Saludos 🇨🇱
Hey, I just randomly found this video in my feed. It's always a joy to watch old toys come back to life. That was probably some child's favorite toy at one point, and to see it so carefully restored is heart warming. Now I'm going to have to look at your other restorations!
The cracking of the acrylic is likely due to stresses in the material from cooling too fast. If you have the time and patience, try cooling it slowly by keeping your heat gun on it and slowly turning down the temp over time. I can't guarantee it will work, but if it does, maybe you won't have to go through so many sheets. Good luck!
Thanks a lot for being here and thanks for the tip , I will try . Wish you all the best 😊
*Brilliant Job. Really enjoyed watching this one come together*
Thank you! Cheers!
Fantastic, very nice to see a new project of yours as well. Best regards
Thanks a lot Lucas ! I saw you posted today and I saw your video is very long , I will make time tonight to watch it 👍

Thank you very much and glad you enjoyed 😊
Excellent restoration! You'd never think it was the same toy!
Thanks a lot , glad you liked it 😊 wish you all the best
Now that My Mechanics has dropped the ball with his Datsun restoration that’s taking forever, you’re the go-to for this type of channel :)
Yes , his videos took longer than we expected. Also I talk with him almost every day and these things surprised him too. He expected to make videos more easy than it took. Anyway , thanks and glad you enjoy my work . Wish you all the best 😊
Loved this restoration. It is definitely a labor of love
Thanks a lot and glad you enjoyed 😊
Beautiful job. The front keys turned out really well with the peroxide cleanse. I love watching the sandblasting piece, oh and the spray painting. Truthfully, I enjoy watching the entire process. You make it look easy. I know that it is labor intensive. Yes, a treasure find too.
Thank you very much and glad you enjoyed. Wish you all the best 😊
TY for doing the lead check :D
Brilliance just Brilliance n so cute
Thank you very much 😊
What an excellent restoration! Turned out amazing! Better than new!
Thank you very much 😊 glad you liked it
This is so impressive, the work, effort and skill involved. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks a lot , glad you liked it 😊
Sandblasting; so satisfying. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed , I try my best for better quality every time 😊
Of all your tools, you lack the right size scoop that will allow you to get the powder in the container without spilling any down the sides 😂 love it
😅 next time I will try with a bigger one 🤣🤣
Remember, keeping the patina on your old coins is the way to increase their value. Don’t try to polish or brighten them, as every tarnish has its own story and time stamp. Collectors want coins that are as pristine as they are, with no metal lost through cleaning efforts. So, let the patina shine its natural way!
Amazing work! My brother had this when I was a kid and I was jealous. They are cool!
Thanks a lot mate 😊
Absolutely beautiful 💙
Thanks a lot , wish you all the best 🤗
Thank you for the video mate! I am loving the 15-20 minute videos and the added context of what you are doing through out the video.

Finally, I’ve been waiting for 2 months which proves my estimate of 3 months per restoration
Beautiful restoration! Congratulations on that coin. That's a rather rare item, I should imagine. Definitely from an all but forgotten era. Almost no one remembers that Romania once had a king in recent history.
Thanks a lot mate , glad you enjoyed! Wish you all the best 😊
Most people would toss this out in the trash and call it a day. It's so nice to see a restored new product given a new life. Look at the results. It's definitely worth it. Great job...
Thank you very much 😊
Love your toy rescue and imagination your kids getting a kick out of playing with them. Great job
Thanks a lot , glad you liked it 😊wish you all the best 😊
I wouldn’t do ANYTHING to it. Clean it, varnish it and leave it as vintage as it is. Love it!!!
