  13. Thanks guys for mentioning me about coin cleaning...The best and closest method that my friend uses is following- http://www.romanorum.com/docs/A Method for cleaning ancient coins. Romanorum.com.pdf The only thing he mentioned to me is that he never soaking bronze coins in distilled water, it does not help in removing problematic parts and only softens the patina.. Thejewk, only practice and practice, at first with the cheap ones, of course, and if you are good at cleaning ancient coins, in the UK you can earn decent money
