You already know what coin it is before the restoration. Stop playing us a fool. You're a terrible actor.

Do you use a solvent to presoften the caked on crud?

Fascinating.

That's how i do it. I must have taught you. Spot on my friend👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂

Your just as good as me🙂I love cleaning roman coins.

where did the coin come from?

Hey man love your videos! Do you mind to share what tools you used to clean the coins? Thanks!

Nice 🦐

Strange how Constantine a Christian emperor would have a pagan god on the reverse of the coin. That doesn’t make sense

Informative video. Now I have to go back and look at a few that I bought 10 plus years ago on ebay. I still have a container of dirty coins sitting in olive oil for about 8 years now. Lol. Since then i heard someone say that olive soaking is out of favor. My interest in ancient coins was lost for a long while. Recently I decided to attempt some cleaning.

Where do you get these dirty coins from?

how many soakings do you go through?

A little late to the game, but enjoy your videos and attention to detail. The holes in the designs that you refer to are really no mystery to those who have been involved in ancient numismatics for many years. Obviously the "holes" are created by protrusions on the dies themselves. Since they do not always line up perfectly obverse to reverse, that would tend to eliminate the "lathe" theory. With these larger and thicker bronze pieces, too much heating before striking would also have caused major planchet splitting which I'm sure would have been avoided as much as possible, and you rarely see any major splitting issues on these. Taking this into consideration, the "holes" were very likely just a function of a multiple-strike minting process due to the natural hardness of the bronze alloys and the higher relief design of the dies. The "reference holes" would have allowed for making multiple strikes of the dies with very little die re-alignment problems. Notice too that you will seldom see such die alignment reference "holes" on low relief coin designs of softer metals such as gold or silver.

Wouldnt an ultrasound cleaner with a suitable surfactant be a safer way than physical abrasion?

In anyone's opinion would all ancient coins on sites like Apmex etc be 100% genuine? They are obviously very reputable but there is always that chance.

beautiful, in what solution did you soak the coin before cleaning ? that look oilded

How many hours to clean one coin?

Стоп!! Сами же официалы говорят что до 17 века не было денег!!! Что какой то Батист в 19 веке сделал кучу поделок !!!! Он сам признался . И что в музеях мира тоже поделки !!!!! Что за бред !!!! Хватит людей обманывать!!!!!

Question. Do you think that an ultrasonic cleaner, one of those industrial ones, not the tiny commercial ones, would be able to clean all the dirt off without any damage? Because I think it would be able to get a lot of the dirt off, especially if it were looser dirt

Where do you get your music from?

Your videos are the best things on TH-cam!

Woohoo!

I like when someone restoring its coins and turning it from something that can be Very Fine to Fair. Thus I know mine became more rare in the world :)))))

This is so satisfying to watch!😌Thanks for sharing, Nick.

Thank you very much for showing us. I really enjoy your videos.

Nick, this was so cool! Thanks for sharing this with us!

Exciting news! The inclusion of Rose number [110] beautifully symbolizes our collaborative efforts in this creative garden at CoinEra. Let's continue nurturing this shared space together! 🌹🌷🌼 Thank you for being an integral part of it! 😊💖

Thanks! Great to see you work. Would like more details on how you work. Soaking in water? How long? Useing needle? Useing composite cleaning pencil? Soaking in between? Etc. Thanks from Sweden 🇸🇪 for great videos. 👏👏🙏

The result is very impressive 👍

love every single one

So we have a ton of found coinage, do we have any of the original stamps and dies as well? I'm assuming they're more rare, but would be cool to see one of those.

Great video. What tools do you use for cleaning?

Love the video! Where do you purchase your uncleaned coins?

Podrías poner subtítulos en español gracias.

Great video love to see how people clean coins many different ways to do it personal preference is the main one a you do a great job. I live in the UK plenty of Roman coins over here but I don't find that many. 2:28

GOATED

Why not use dry ice blasting? done in 20 seconds with no damage

Do you have an Instagram?

Thankyou for the video! I recently bought a coin from someone on eBay! It was a Septimius Severus coin so very nice! When I got I looked it up on wildwinds to get all the information on this coin and write it out to go with my coin.The bust of the Emperor was great but I turn it around I could find the reverse anywhere in the Septimius Severus area, I had bought a copy of ERIC years ago so I looked it up in that I found nothing! I was so disappointed so I took a picture of both sides and got in touch with one of the guy on Helvetica’s identification help page and 24 hours later he said it was a fake probably for the tourist trade! So I text the dealer ,he apologized and gave me my money back! I have got coins from him before and they were real! He said he is very careful when he buys coins but this one slip through!but the sad part now he won’t let me buy coins from him anymore! I usually by coins at coin show or the couple of coin shows in my city! But if I shop on eBay I look them up on wildwinds or my books before bidding! Love your video I will subscribe!

I bet you have carpal tunnel like a mofo.

Where does one get an ancient coin like this?

May I ask, why not use an ultrasonic cleaner?

What tools are you using

silly question. but would the dirt not be abrasive. would soaking as much dirt off the coin first be better?

they can fake any coin, even use the right metal by melting low quality ancient coins from the same area and time and using the hammering method

Please do more videos like these!

Hi great video! I realized at 5:18 you said that the Trajan denarius is a bit overpriced, but from what I know that's a pretty solid price.

As an eBay seller (different niche) I loved this video and the “nest” description had me cackling!! Love it

Nice video, you are probably saving a few new collectors some money. Here in Germany, the scams are mostly the same, except for the fact that even low value third to fourth century coins are being sold and shipped from the Balkans on mass. People really gotta be careful out there
