Wait a few years, you will see how your coins will die. Olive oil kills coins because years after cleaning the acidity continues his effects that you don't see directly
You just destroyed a 1700 yr old coin what you are doing is vandalism pure and simple. You have zero knowledge of how to clean and look after coins. Maybe give it a rinse in distilled water first no need for that dramatic scraping, olive oil will go rancid and you will have a smelly damaged coin. All that coin actually needed was a rinse and dry. Massive dislike.
I have the pin to the left. It is a widows pence as it was handed down quietly. I can’t believe she left it for me. It took me 17 years to decide t was a coin. So cool ii
Do you know that someone left me this coin. The widows mite. She was the most Godly woman ever on earth. I discovered it’s true value when I finally found it. I keep it on me bc I intend to give it back Jesus.
Thanks so much for this. I am scouting for my first coin and after months of research I have decided to collect Republic denarius. So this is my sweet spot.
Apparently Alexander was an antihellenic Slav from the former Yugoslavia who spoke a Bulgarian dialect modified and rename "Macedonian" by Yugoslav communists. You can clearly see the Slavic language on those ancient Macedonian coins.
Mother and father from illyrian tribes. Spoke epirote and was not caucasus (all slav migratet from caucasus) so no my friend dont belive slavic propaganda on tiktok
@@chickenni8163 You are right about the former Yugoslavians' historical propaganda but Alexander's father Philip was a self-identifying Macedonian Greek, not Illyrian. He competed in three different Olympiads (at the time reserved for Greeks) His mother Olympia was a Greek princess from at the time Greek Kingdom of Epirus. The language on those Macedonian coins is unambiguously Greek.
hello I have some coins from my grand father that were in contact with pvc and i wanted to know if pvc just leaves that green color or if it also wears them
The 1888 O is a bit more Rare , Please be careful , If it comes back Cleaned Details you Lost the Value of even Grading it . Personally I think the best advice is to Never clean a coin .
the stuff is olive oil based you say. Olive oil in itself is very bad for coins. It contains acid which will damage the coin in the long run and is difficult to remove. You can use Vaseline, but it must be acid-free. This masks the coin as a dust magnet. It is better to clean the coin thoroughly first. Then place the coin in demineralized water for a few days. Finally, preserve the coin with Microcrystalline Wax or paraloid b72. This gives a protective colorless hard layer and the process is reversible.
Matthew 26:11 … doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be fought, it does mean you won’t have 100% success. Do churches and the Vatican sometimes retain too much. Sure. I wouldn’t dwell on how much they retain but on how much they help. It is also good to have wealth.
