[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 12568505, member: 110226"]Here's another unusual Byzantine Arab fals that I came upon last month. This coin has spent some time in distilled water, since it appears to have bronze disease. Now, after a few days, I am not sure if the problem was BD or just some light green deposits. Either way most have been removed. I'm keeping the coin under observation for any reoccurrence of BD. This is the coin before cleaning: [IMG]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/8q0AAOSwLs5jbJdx/s-l1600.jpg[/IMG] [B][/B] Here it is after the bath: [B] Arab Byzantine AE fals, standing caliph, falcon left. 4.19 grams[/B] [ATTACH=full]1528065[/ATTACH] Is this another fals from Damascus, 7th century AD? Thanks![/QUOTE]
