Comment from : @margacuriosa

No disrespect to you but I normally don't trust any sponsor that a YouTube content creator promotes In my opinion a majority of them end up being scams but this is just the thing that I've always said I wanted and I'm going to take a chance on the Noble Roman coins I like history (like everyone here loll) and this is how I can end up closer I was just at the Metropolitan Museum of art in Manhattan and I was so jealous at all the coins and little trinkets So this is my chance

Coins make the history feel very real At times it can all feel like a fantasy novel

Comment from : @bomaite1

I found that soaking them in vinegar for 24h works the best All the crud flakes off in one piece , leaving it shiny as the day it was made

Could i use a ultra sonic cleaner?
Comment from : @charliesybert2683

Thats a really sweet dupondius, congratulationsbrI've had thousands of poor quality coins that were never worth cleaning up, they must have been thrown down the latrine
Comment from : @stevehammel2939

I appreciate that you do not wish to sell it but your title implies a reveal of the actual price, does it not?
Comment from : @apollion888

In Philadelphia it's worth 50 bucks
Comment from : @EthanBSide

I would never use a scalpel for cleaning a coin Too easy to damage it
Comment from : @rickfox4068

Great job!
Comment from : @williambranch4283

That is an absolutely gorgeous coin Your first video on cleaning ancient coins inspired me to do so as well, it's honestly an art form What a wonderful hobby
Comment from : @anightatrosies

I'd probably use a weak ultra sonic cleaner first to just loosen the dirt, like how you soaked it in distilled water, but yes, it can be very relaxing to clean a coin that way, and you keep the patina, which is nice Not every coin needs to be shiny and clean, it's nice to do if you get a really nice rare one, so you can see the details and catelog and all that, but that coin seems better with the pattina
Comment from : @JoshuaNicoll

Thank you that was enormously enjoyablebrI collected Roman coins until the age of 15brI think I’m going to start againbrI am now well over 60!
Comment from : @markreeves3903

First time seeing yourr channel I'm totally fascinated Any chance of getting footage interspersed of the actual cleaning? Even if at high speed? That would hook me😁
Comment from : @jmsparger4339

Wow I know nothing about this stuff, but even I can tell - nice job!
Comment from : @abrown6539

FYI: from Roman Coins & Their Values, Volume 2, David Sear (2000): this appears to be Sear #3219 Brass Dupondius (page 113), and it is listed as Very Fine $200 and Extra Fine $600 This appears to me to be quite a nice example, so would probably go towards the higher end of the price quote Struck in Rome in AD 116 From comments below about cleaning: the ultrasound is probably a very bad idea Every ancient is being "held" together largely by the patina, which is a layer of oxidation which actually "seals" and protects the body of the coin from further degradation The patina is a mix of metal and mineral (nature wants to decompose your metal back to a mineral state) As such I think the ultrasound will likely destroy the patina in short order Also, there's a chance it will disintegrate the coin totally depending upon the integrity of the underlying metal What a beautiful coin you ended up with here
Comment from : @KSASTAMPS

I understand your joy in uncovering and touching historical artifacts Well done

Cleaning and enhancing image lines looks best…

Use an ultrasonic cleaner Faster
Comment from : @jperez7893

What’s the coins value after that ?
Comment from : @tannerstull6490

What a journey! I totally understand both your connection with the coin given the time you worked on it and also the peaceful feeling it gave you when spending hours working over the surfacebrAt the beginning you mentioned the tooth pick, the metal pick and the scalpel The video showed the scalpel with the coin fron day 2 or 3, was that the tool you use for the majority of the time? And did you use a large fixed lens to help see what you were doing?brSuperb video, I absolutely loved it Thank you
Comment from : @dave_lawrence

Nice coin and video, thanks!

Beautiful!
Comment from : @jenniferhart6136

Well done! I totally get being in the zone while cleaning the coin and how pleasurable that can be
Comment from : @darrinb1972

That’s stunning It’s an awesome feeling to behold artifacts of such age and history

Clickbait I’m not interested in an advertisement of a coin shop
Comment from : @Oldman808

Wow! That's amazing work young man!! I love how you've revealed the detail of hair, seen under the crown! Fantastic 🙏🏻 👏👏
Comment from : @UkuleleBobbyKemp

I must ask because now I'm curious: how much bis/b it worth?
Comment from : @ellerose9164

Your video about cleaning roman coins introduced me to the whole hobby How quickly I went from "wow, you can own these ancient artifacts!?" to "oh, another fallen horseman"
Comment from : @FrankyBabes

Incredibly detailed and well struck portrait of Trajan beautifully restored
Comment from : @kiely4561

I wonder what they bought with that coin!?
Comment from : @chipwalter4490

Thay emerald color is beautiful such a magical process
Comment from : @Dionysus999

How much does a coin like this cost? if you were to sell it
Comment from : @Nox-qo1ws

I don’t know much at all about ancient coins but this coin is beautiful, well done
Comment from : @dukert27

beautiful hobby
Comment from : @yallahyallah4220

Thanks for sharing this
Comment from : @Z__K217

Do these coins maintain their condition more so because of the make and material of the coins or rather the environmental conditions of the place the coin was lost?brCan modern coins last this long if they were in the same environmental conditions?
Comment from : @dustin77

I wonder if a carefully calibrated laser cleaner would work without causing damage to the metal underneath?
Comment from : @nathanimes4041

Monumental video! Selling my coin collection (including ancient roman) when I was a homeless teenager was a sinking feeling brPerhaps collecting again I will regain youthful numismatic excitement I had at the time Thank you for TIME, the most valuable currency

It’d be great if you can do a video addressing the dreaded bronze disease
Comment from : @augcaes

I started a new hobby thanks to you watching your show and being introduced to Kevin at NRC question for you is this, what magnifying lamp do you use? I bought one, but its too weak in my opinion maybe 2X magnification I'm reading that a 10X magnification is best thoughts? Thanks!
Comment from : @iskato914six

Have you tried doing that using electric toothpick?
Comment from : @nesa1126

Amazing vid👍 Is there a product that gives cleaned coins that ‘Wet’ look? And protects and lasts for many decades?
Comment from : @oldplucker1

As always just fascinating and thank you for sharing I loved watching the slow change, very calming Having history in your hands, I would worry about scratching the coin, but you make it look easy It would be nice to know why the other processes destroy the patina, maybe I hope in another coin video??? 😃
Comment from : @TheDuc069

Amazing I wonder how "perfectly round" these coins were when new
Comment from : @asgerms

Would it help to start with distilled water in a Jeweller's ultrasonic bath?? Patina is well adhered so should not come off with dirt particles
Comment from : @peteregan3862

Truly magnificent piece of ancient metalworking and art Were these coins stamped or cast (or other)?
Comment from : @bentationfunkiloglio

A beautiful coin! What luck to get it in your haul--
Comment from : @shawna620

It is stunning to see such an old coin cleaned and look less worn than a 50 or 100 year old silver dollar
Comment from : @jamietie

I can really understand why it's such a rewarding hobby! An ancient treasure, a link to the past, slowly uncovered from the dirt Archaeology in miniature!
Comment from : @Poohze01

Loved seeing the details emerge
Comment from : @T_Mo271

About the cleaning Would ultrasound devices work at some point of the process? Also, have you tried fiber-glass pens (brushes, really)? As an electronic guy who uses those for cleaning PCB pads, it feels like a natural go-to
Comment from : @Ninja-Alinja

Fantastic coin, your final video look at it was wonderful!
Comment from : @mikemorgan4432

I love these coin videos Could you light the coin more strongly, or increase the contrast so we can see the details? They always look much muddier than I guess they do in real life
Comment from : @unclvinny

You did an amazing job! Fantastic coin
Comment from : @nirdale

Do any ancient coins have the year they were minted on them? When did that become a thing?
Comment from : @naciremasti

Perhaps that coin cleaning could be sped up some but still safely with air pressure? Still methodical, just a better tool?
Comment from : @MrDowntemp0

Wow, it really is beautiful All the details in his hair

took long time to clean but it turned out to be beautifulbrgood job
Comment from : @TroyArmstrong

Dr G! You never fail to enchant me If I may make a suggestion - as one of your FIRST fans - you might gift me that coin for my 65th birthday just past I know that is exactly the sort of gesture you love to make! And I know that (if you haven't actually noticed) you share the same profile as Trajan - sans barbe But without the massive taurine neck, needless to say

The patina is beautiful Are there non destructive cleaning methods, such as ultrasonic or low abrasive tumbling?

Awesome, good eye and nice work, thanks for share this your esperienze, like from Italy
Comment from : @Susan_HunTer

so at the time it was commonly used as currency how much would that coin have been worth? a loaf of bread? a nice meal? or only used as part of a large purchase like property? is the only way for these things to survive to the present is to be lost completely until discovered well past any chance of it being used as money?
Comment from : @mm-yt8sf

Wow I did not think all of that was still underneath the dirt and that anyone could salvage it to that degree Great job and thanks for sharing the process

Censored Too hot for YouTube It is a beautiful coin 👍

Do you have a discord? It would be fun to share coins that we find in cleaning lots from Noble Roman Coins

Noble Roman Coins is fantastic!brbrIf you are watching this video as your first exposure to Noble Roman Coins here's my experience:brPremium: Almost guaranteed to be a collection of small LRBC with the occasional surprise but it won't be incredible This is a good way to test your patience before you make any huge investment and is recommended since spending so much time on a coin is hard for most people This is a great way to try touching history If you enjoy this, you will want to try the more expensive lotsbrTrue Premium: A real bread and butter purchase You will find some really nice antoninioni in these I have found fully silvered Aurelian (See my profile picture), great Probus, and some larger fun LRBC You may even find silver coins, I have found a fewbrDigger's Choice: The biggest most expensive slot machine churns out the biggest prizes and sometimes not Every lot of these that you buy will have some real treasures in it They won't all be incredible but they will all be big or special I have found rare LRBC, silver denari of Septimius Severus in fantastic shape, an As of Hadrian with legible legends, and huge Follis These coins are an investment They also sell out around 1 minute after listing them brbrKevin is a fantastic dealer to work with I'm sad that more people will know about him now but what can you do?brbrMy lands, you got a lucky coin from the diggers choice! I've been buying every chance I get since your first video I've never found one that nice!
Comment from : @nathanielscreativecollecti6392

Of all the billions of people that have passed and still living since the stamping of this coin you are the one honored to reveal its beauty What will this coins future path hold? Will it end up on another planet ? Will it be lost in time again?
