<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David@PCC, post: 2591127, member: 80556&quot;]I&#039;ve cleaned thousands over the last 15 years and you can find some on eBay, but the great lots left long ago as regulation and competition tightened. Your best bet for detail will be late Roman&#039;s because they are very very common. I recommend finding a seller that only sells coins, better yet if uncleaned is all they do. You may be disappointed with a lot that comes from a seller that sells something other than ancient coins. Also look at the photos, they should show you the <i>actual </i>lot. Look for some detail where you can, such as a head, lettering is best. With that said coins do come out of the ground and it is possible to purchased true uncleaned, but they will have been picked through. Around $2 per coin is an acceptable price for decent quality, at least that&#039;s the cheapest I know of (I used to get them for 55¢). Some sellers will list &#039;low grade&#039; or &#039;low quality&#039; ect which may be cheaper, but detail really suffers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
