Such a sweet coin, and the detail of Aeternitas and the heads of Sol and Luna are much better than I was hoping. I guess I&#039;ll have to find the 2nd consulship version now!</p><p><br /></p><p>For those of you who may be curious about the cleaning method, I&#039;ve used it for years to clean crusty black metal-detected US silver coins, and while it&#039;s not appropriate for coins with thick black sulfide patina (too much silver will have been converted to the sulfide, so the surfaces will be rather rough and unappealing), it is a very useful technique. Here&#039;s a good video demonstrating the method:</p><p><br /></p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]-DQbttBUi8c[/MEDIA][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
