[QUOTE="rnealw, post: 2815, member: 176"]I'm gonna have to crank a couple of wheels upstairs that haven't been greased in a while to remember those sellers. I find that half the joy of the horde coins is cleaning to see what you got, and if you got young one to share with thats even better. The coins I have average around 1500 Yrs old, a couple as old as 1700 yrs old if I had a good camera to do it with I would post some Pictures and I've learned some good clean the caked on gunk tricks that don't damage the coins if they are monitered closely like using an electric current. of course some of the coins are little more than Flacky metal and rust but some come out beautifully. if your gonna try it get at least 10 to 20 coins to start. alot of these coins are stuff sold of from museums for funds and because they don't have the time or manpower to clean all the coins. Buy a few and try it you may not find any great valuable treasure but you will get some enjoyment from it and the history bug will bite. Did you know that some Roman soilders use to tie a coin with a hole in it to their armour for protection.[/QUOTE]
