Hello folks! Great to be here!
I'm just getting into coin cleaning (ancient, of course). My first order was on
Ebay (I hear bad things...) and I purchased 3 uncleaned "
Roman" coins...
I don't have pictures of when I first got them, but I have pictures of their progress. If I
had only known then what I know now...
So anyways, I just
had to stumble upon these:
One was a slug which I didn't even bother to post, but the other two... - Did I really just screw up THAT bad??
Am I to understand the
Procopius coin is
rare, and the
Thrace (
Mesembria) is pretty decent as well?!
So for kicks, the last image is of the
Procopius coin before I stupidly removed the
Patina. It looked so
good, but I just did NOT know what I was doing.
