Are many of the
Roman coins silver
plated??
I have been cleaning up some of my really bad encrusted coins through
electrolosis and notice that many seem like silver then during cleaning turn copper color.
Since these are just for fun coins I am not concerned about ruining them, just wondering.
I put my
good patina coins in olive oil for a month to clean.
Also how do I know if I have a gold coin? do
gold coins have patinas also??
