<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bing, post: 2708279, member: 44132&quot;]yeah, it would be nice to see what it looked like before, but it looks like like a decent psychedelic SS denarius.&nbsp; BTW, none of my cleaning attempts have proven to be very good. This coin was bent at a 90 degree angle when I got it in a mixed lot.&nbsp; I had noting to lose to straighten it.&nbsp; I wrapped it in a soft cloth then put it in my vise.&nbsp; Afterwards I tried some lemon juice to try to clean it up.&nbsp; Not a very good attempt at cleaning.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]610916[/ATTACH] </p><p>M.
