I have a few dealers I do business with for semi cleaned and cleaned pieces. I went threw some of their stock today and got 10 new pieces. I think in the end with some TLC these will turn out to be some nice pieces. a Couple are mostly clean. I picked these because of the amount of details showing through the dirt Chris PETRA.

Very interesting purchase. I liked mostly Helena ( I don't have one), and the billon tetradrachm of Philip II.
@britannia40 -- Chris, you might be interested in this thread, which discusses the AE4 you have of Helena.
