<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LaCointessa, post: 2772034, member: 87186&quot;]Thank you [USER=72818]@Mikey Zee[/USER] for your suggestions. And I was thinking the same thing about warming up some distilled water - although I hadn&#039;t thought to put them in boiling water. I am getting ready to take a look at them this morning after they spent the night soaking. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think that [USER=87200]@ancient coin hunter[/USER] (also, thank you for your feedback and experiences) may have the key....a short soak in distilled water and a gentle rub between thumb and index finger.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=78411]@Nicholas Molinari[/USER] - Thank you too. I appreciate your remarks. I do plan to work more with the top coin - the one with the deer. According to what my quick search has found, there should be a female on the obverse; and, it does look rather feminine, but I can&#039;t see it very clearly.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, so there are only two different coins shown in the photographs above. Each coin is photographed twice. The top photos in each set show obv and rev before soaking and the bottom photos in each set show obv and rev after soaking. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think I may stop working on the bottom coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for all your help. </p><p>I think I may stay away from the olive oil.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
