<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LaCointessa, post: 2892443, member: 87186&quot;]Oh! I see now, where you started to tidy up the obverse of your coin. You still have a lot of crust there to get off. What did you do exactly? </p><p><br /></p><p>And I see what you mean about the obverse. While it looks like RIC 47 (the first one listed) the reverse does not look like the one that goes with that obverse. The victory that is leaning back on your coin is not leaning back on the one in that RIC 47. </p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, sometimes you can come across a coin that is not included in the RIC.&nbsp; If you think that it is not included, You can ask our experts here at CT. In that case, I think you want to start a new thread - not about coin cleaning. Make it a question about attribution and whether it is possible that your coin is not included in the RIC.</p><p><br /></p><p>You might like to tidy your coin up just a bit more though, so that folks can see it better. I think what I would do if I were working on that coin is gently lift away some of the flaky pieces that seem to be begging to be removed. Like the piece right next to the ruler&#039;s upper lip. </p><p><br /></p><p>And yes, ancient coins are the coolest![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
