    Nice additions to your collection. Tell us more about that Tiberius!

    As you know, I have developed a bit of a Julia Mamaea fetish of late. Here's my VENVS VICTRIX denarius:

    how did you clean it? Hard to see it. Did you put in distilled water, then brush it? It looks ok, but I miss the green color that disappeared, but it could be worse (e.g., scratches from cleaning, potholes etc)
