<p>[QUOTE="Ancientnoob, post: 1824541, member: 44140"]I am not one to purchase coins of 150K CHF price tag. So honestly I would have never looked at it. In my mind I just dont understand how Brass could have its original luster after 2000 years. It would be hard to believe that the coin was preserved that way. How could it have been in an oxygen free environment for that long? I just don't see how that is possible. It would have to had been chemically cleaned somehow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
