Here is the next lot. Looks challenging. Since "green is OK," the big one is ready to go  :laugh: The one on the left looks suspiciously Judean. The bottom row all have a desert patina, so maybe Egyptian.

Looks like a good lot! I am interested in how the big greenie turns out. The rev looks interesting.

The Christmas Wreath on the reverse of Greenie stands about a millimeter above the surface of the rest of the coin. God only knows what is under that.

I am interested to see the Greenie as well.  I hope for you that the "wreath" comes off easily and does not leave a crater of hopeless doom  ;D

I am also interested to see your skill on the bottom three coins.  I will say no more, but am curious as to how you decide to clean them.

These are nice coins--no "damnatio" for you this time :)
