<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsimonel, post: 4213663, member: 82549&quot;]The lot that harbored these was rather small, I think maybe 20 coins in all. But I&#039;ve cleaned over a thousand coins over the years, and these two were probably the nicest finds.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, I <i>have</i> earned money cleaning, IDing and then selling ancient coins. When I consider the time spent, my expenses and my profit, I figure I probably brought in at least a dollar and hour for my efforts, maybe even as much as a $1.25/hr.! I suppose I could complain to the NLRB, but I&#039;m not sure who to blame.</p><p><br /></p><p>Actually though, when I consider the joy of discovery and the education I received by cleaning uncleaned ancient coins, I consider my efforts very successful. Great hobby--lousy business.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
