<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1687098, member: 26302&quot;]To be fair, I WOULD say there isn&#039;t ancient copper that looks just like it was minted. Not unless someone just stripped the patina, (which in that case doesn&#039;t look like it left the mint either). Btw Detecto, any &quot;full red&quot; 1400 coins would ALSO have to have been just recently stripped. Its hard enough to keep a 100 year old coin &quot;full red&quot;, most by that age if they are still red are dark red.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am perfectly fine, though, having ancient copper coins brown and green. Could you imagine a sestertius? I think it would look gawdawful bright and shiny brass. Ick![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
