<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1110604, member: 19463&quot;]Oops! I lied.&nbsp; I checked a coin that was treated about ten years ago and discovered the disease is back.&nbsp; The coin as it existed this morning is shown at the top with the right inset just being an enlarged section showing the green.&nbsp; At the bottom left is the pin point and results of touching the powder,&nbsp; Notice that it scattered and a bit even adhered to the pin.&nbsp; Now I have to get the chemicals and go through that again (hopefully with better results).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>BTW:&nbsp; Some are wondering why anyone would want to preserve such an ugly denarius.&nbsp; It is your right to hold that opinion and I will discuss it with you only after you find any photo of this exact coin (both sides used together) or even a listing in a catalog.&nbsp; Think of it as a research challenge.</p><p><br /></p><p>Julia Domna, Alexandria mint denarius, IVLIADO MNAAVG / VENVS FELIX[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
