    Looks real, but its EDWARD VI (1547 – 51)

    Cleaned up it may present better. But its worth a few hundred bucks.
     
  6. I pulled out anything prior to 1900 and am still sorting

    Bottom two are fake and the one on the second to left row is a spanish coin from the mid 1400s or later. So not ancient.

    From top: Antoninus Pius it looks like and a ancient fake too known as a fourree. Second coin is a greek, no idea where. Third coin is too corroded.
    Second from left it looks like Postumus, a spanish coin, Constantius II?, one with the hole is Galba, and last is probus.
    Third row is Gordian III & Trajan Sestertius.

    I see a French Revolutionary and many German states coins in the 'British and Early American' stuff.

    The ancient lot isnt worth much. The only "special coin" is the galba on the second row, second from right. But with the hole it knocks the value down alot. Maybe $50 due to the hole and the reverse is a better type.

    Rest of the lot, maybe $60 total, coins are too worn and the fakes, just toss or give to a kid.
     
  13. Not sure if cleaning I have used MS70 and coin dip (for 90%) stackers like it shiny at flee markets

    Heard vasiline for loose dirt I have a really nice 1841 maybe O Seated Liberty dime I was told to use it in

    Just haven't trusted using it on numismatic coins fear of damaging

    If you know of or would like to do a simple write up for my website and I will send you link backs

    Distilled water for a bir and a toothpick would probably do it.
