<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Justin Lee, post: 3274926, member: 87404&quot;]Quick update on the Agrippa As:</p><p><br /></p><p>After a few days in DW, more brushing and a lil picking Thursday night (focusing on the top of the reverse), then a last soak over the weekend and a final brushing. Due to the exposed metal during the more intensive cleaning (some obverse and top of reverse), gave it a brief dip in a mild liver of sulphur mix to even it out/coat it. Then a warm dry to remove any water, finishing off with a Ren wax coating.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is the results...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]864612[/ATTACH] </p><p><b>Agrippa, AE As, </b></p><p><b>Struck under Caligula 37-41 AD, Rome mint</b></p><p>Obverse: M AGRIPPA L F COS III, head of Agrippa, left, wearing rostral crown. </p><p>Reverse: Neptune standing facing, head left, naked except for cloak draped behind him &amp; over both arms, holding small dolphin in right hand &amp; vertical trident in left, S C across field. </p><p>References: RIC I 58</p><p>Size: 27.5mm, 8.3g</p><p><br /></p><p>The weight changed from 8.4g to 8.3g.
