<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 211003, member: 6370&quot;]If I had one small bit of advice...dont apply a fake patina, let the coin sit as is, bare metal...dont put it in a holder, just keep it exposed and let it tone and repatinate on its own next time...or just keep it metal...if the coin was not pitted...it might look nice! These coins were cleaned down to the metal but they weren&#039;t pitted so it looks great IMO:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://www.cachecoins.org/gallienus2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://www.cachecoins.org/gallienus.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>also, seal your coin with Renaissance Wax...not lacquer, just a bit of advice there, the wax can be easily removed if need be and it gentle...its what museums use.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
