<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrZun, post: 25369696, member: 151621&quot;]I know that most ancient coins were cleaned in the past, but a lot of people say you should not clean beyond its toning. I know my Coins were cleaned, but do they have or not the original toning? When cleaning a ancient silver, is It inevitable that It Will clean its original toning?</p><p><br /></p><p>I always saw that cleaning ancients are a restoration, Very different from cleaning modern Coins since ancients are all Full of dirt and deposits, but since hearing these things, i was kinda a bit down hearing that there are ancients with original patina out there, but most coins selling they all look like mine <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> kinda makes me feel like my Coins were damaged instead of restored.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am taking these things too seriously and a clean ancient with or without a cabinet patina is not a damaged Coin?</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: my camera makes my Coins a bit brighter, my republic denarius as an example, It way darker and has an yellow patina around and even more at the center, especially in the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
