RE: Original: Holding a Piece of History on my Hand
The Roman empire lasted at least 600 years in its prime and spanned the entire continent so they could be Roman but also could be Greek or from the ottoman empire. If you are interested in cleaning them I suggest soaking them in olive oil for a few months and then in distilled water. I had some really rough Roman coins, many of them where worn beyond recognition but a few cleaned up perfectly.
Thank you for this valuable information, very much appreciated and I am going to soak them right now in olive oil and see what happens later.
It won't be instant, patience and time. Just put them out of site and out of mind and have a look in a month
I got all the time and patience, one of my Investment strategies is holding for 5 to 10 years the things I see have potential to become valuable, Thanks again for the tip.
