o_O The entire paragraph. Where did you read that? None of it is accurate.
Someone on CT recently posted an amazing cleaning job using these tools and I think that's how he used them. I didn't bookmark the thread but...
I may be wrong but I think you're supposed to press and crush the deposits with that tool, and then brush the resulting debris away with a...
Hmm, yeah... looking at the Agrippa image enlarged-- what are you brushing it with, Justin? It's taking off too much.
This is exciting! I think you're going to end up with some decent coins-- even the Caligula!
I'd start with the basics-- a distilled water soak and gentle scrub, although it looks like the dirt is long gone. After that, I'd soak in...
Ooooh, I think that Agrippa might turn out to be pretty nice! The Caligula is going to be tough. In my limited cleaning experience, the red...
Hi Shrews! Looks like you had a nice haul. Your pictures are good but it is hard to study the coins when you have to scroll to see both sides....
You had a nice year-- many awesome coins are in that group :).
I've been dragging my heels about getting one because I resent having to pay so much for a type which has tens of thousands of extant examples!...
What a delightful array! The Metapontion, Nero & Agrippina, cast as, and Nero denarius are my favorites.

Well, I am just blown away. Flabbergasted. Stunned. Whoever sent this... it is far too generous! I sincerely appreciate the gift and it will...
Looks like Wexler's 2009 1¢ FY WDDR-002: [ATTACH]
So true!! The Nemausus is a real stand-out. It's hard to find them in such good condition with such comparatively good centering! I'm getting...
Nice score! It has everything I'd want in an Athens owl-- well-centered obverse with complete nose, and well-centered reverse with a large enough...
A wonderfully diverse year! Of course I like all of the Egyptian coins, and the Rhodes is gorgeous! As for your medievals, I don't know how to...
