    SILVER! Today we're going to restore an antique Roman coin of Emperor Probus. Can I clean this ancient artifact and discover the secrets that lie beneath almost 2000 years of dirt?

    Good call by not applying Renaissance Wax inside your home. The product has some nasty chemicals in it. I always apply it outdoors, wearing disposable gloves. Nice cleaning job. Thanks for the idea of using a thorn.

    Amazing work, Nick. Crazy that in relative time, it doesn't seem that long ago since ancient Rome. So much history has been lost, and we only get these little glimmers of what it was like back then. Can't wait to see more.

    Wow that coin came out very nice, you did a great job on it. My first Ancient I cleaned was a Crispus silver plated one as well, it was in much worse condition, it has already started to flake off but I will cherish it, it started me on the roads to coins, and coin conservation. I subbed and liked, cant wait for the next one.

    Great job on the coin. Silvered antoniniani require a ton of patience to clean right and you did fantastic. Kudos! For a final photo, I like direct sunlight.
    I have cleaned one such coin. It's now my profile on UA-cam. It was scary stressful to clean mine. A common Aurelian but with great silvering.

    • @nathanielscreativecollecti6392
      @nathanielscreativecollecti6392 Рік тому

      You may consider getting a fiberglass brush, they can be fantastic cleaning tools for silver coins because they won't damage the silver ever. I use them up a lot because they make cleaning so much easier.

    Excellent work! Seeing that beautiful reverse get restored was awesome. It's one of my favourites because it conveys real power by the horses bursting from the coins centre, almost like the sunrise that Sol is responsible for.
    Perhaps I'm a bit odd, but I would appreciate some slower cleaning clips too, I find it very satisfying/relaxing, particularly when the lettering gets done haha.

    Would you be willing to do a Q+A style video explaining some of the equipment you use and showing the equipment as well as explaining how you find these coins and maybe how you find reputable sites? I'd love to try cleaning some coins myself! I've collected a few but the latest one I bought had scratch marks that I've now learned were likely from a rushed cleaner than from actual ancient use. Thanks!

    your content is deity-tier my dude. I've subscribed and I've watched every single one of your videos. Do you think you'll be able to share your recording setup? Seeing your videos made me want to get into coin restoration, so I bought all the supplies and I would love to document the projects the way you do.

    @nazachar 9 місяців тому

    I have recently purchased a Severina silvered coin. Could you recommend a tool/link to a tool that would work well for cleaning? I'm currently only using dental picks and bamboo sticks, but the risk of scratching is pretty high with the picks and don't want to risk it with this specimen. Cheers

    Would putting these in an ultrasonic cleaner remove the dirt and still leave the patina?

    • @historyathome
      @historyathome  5 місяців тому

      Only if you are very experienced in US cleaning, which i am not. Usually ultrasonics destroy the patina.

  • @VivekGupta-iw5zc
    @VivekGupta-iw5zc 6 місяців тому

    If you could just clean the silver with a little vinegar and salt bath it would take off all the rust and would give it a more shiny and appeal able look which could have given more details...would it damage the coin in any way?

    • @david82633
      @david82633 4 місяці тому

      Yeah, acid destroys the outside of the coin, and removes the patina

    How many hours to clean one coin?

    • @historyathome
      @historyathome  22 дні тому

      i'd say anywhere from 4-24 hours depending on the coin and how involved it is.
