<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bing, post: 1934038, member: 44132&quot;]Of course, the dirtier the coin the more cleaning it will require.&nbsp; In the case of your coin, it appears to have hard mineral encrustations which will not be easy to remove.&nbsp; And, if you are successful in removing the encrustations, it&#039;s likely that the bronze is already damaged by the mineral deposits.&nbsp; However, give it a try just for the sake of it.&nbsp; Perhaps I can be proven wrong and you will have a beautiful LRB.&nbsp; I believe the reverse on your coin is a FEL TEMP REPARATIO Fallen Horseman type which was used by only a handful of rulers, so I believe with a little effort we probably can narrow down the attribution.&nbsp; In fact, I believe your coin is a Constantius II, but there are a few others that should be explored.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a site you may find interesting:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/fh.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/fh.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/fh.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
