I see you reside in Florida as do I. I live in the Tampa area. You? Also, I have some coins I can send free of charge to get you started with...
Of course, the dirtier the coin the more cleaning it will require. In the case of your coin, it appears to have hard mineral encrustations which...
Its a good starting point, but I will point out that you can buy nice LRBs in the range of $5 - $10 already cleaned and you know what you're...
Not much. Only the difference of a couple of hundred years I think. Here is the wiki response:
Oh, and BTW, this coin is a common LRB and the value is not very much.
Cleaning Ancients is a necessity. Most have been buried for a couple thousand years, so the crud has to be removed. I generally do not buy coins...

PLAUTILLA
That's clue makes it easy and, truly was my next guess. Now I have to wait till tomorrow or watch someone else get it right. Darn!:mad:
I think the full attribution is: Arabia Petraea, Bostra. Trajan. A.D. 98-117. COS 5 (A.D. 103-111). Laureate bust right, slight drapery on far...
Valens?
It's not silver at all. AE refers to bronze coinage.
I certainly wouldn't pay it, but it may very well be worth the price. I think its an Diocletian, AE Medallion,287 AD. IMP C C VAL DIOCLETIANVS P...
