<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roerbakmix, post: 3374168, member: 100731&quot;]Hi all,</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve recently bought a fourrée drachm of Appolonia (ID help by [USER=87271]@AnYangMan[/USER]). The coin was relatively cheap, but is in bad shape even for a fourrée. I&#039;ve decided to try and restore it just a little bit, but was curious about the general opinion on how to start.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, the coin:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]895029[/ATTACH] </p><p>Weight 2.19 g, diameter 13 mm.</p><p>I have not yet found this specific coin online, but as [USER=87271]@AnYangMan[/USER] mentioned: on Apollonian coins, the cow is facing left or right, while on the dyrrachium coins, the cow faces right. In this case, the cow faces left. </p><p><br /></p><p>So: would you clean a coin in this shape, and if so: how? </p><p><br /></p><p>Also very curious on other examples of Appolonian coinage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
