I do not know how everyone thinks, I do respect their views.
Myself, I say you have done a good job, you brought to life again the beauty of this coin.
Well done.

Agreed; I'm one of the "leave it alone" group but you did a really nice job.  To me you improved the appearance of the coin and I can't fault that.  Good work.  Bill

First of all I love the results. Someone said "Brave" Yes, very brave I wouldn't have tried it.

Unfortunately, this has been the case for me. Most of what I got was a carroded mess. The rest that had good metal content beneath, left me with a stripped coin. 

Any Case though I share my Nero - bought as is.
