<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3627910, member: 74968&quot;]Here is the auction photo. Mine was taken after I cleaned off near 2000 years worth of gunk and encrustations. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]973031[/ATTACH] </p><p>The dark spots you see on the coin are leftovers from the cleaning process.There are no casting bubbles just areas where I did not want to strip the coin. I have this coin in hand, the silver is just fine. It looks grey because I did not want to remove the entire patina from the coin. I hate shiny silver. The auction photo shows the coin as yellow. It was not yellow before I cleaned it but it was covered in encrustations as you can see from the mottled appearance.</p><p><br /></p><p>Go ahead and click on the OP photo to enlarge it, you will see that the dark spots are not casting bubbles.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
