@bd251. Nice coin, first of this type I've seen. Some great history. And at 26888, it's the score to beat, that's for certain.

Ok, now I'm with you. Yes it is a train wreck. It's the only ancient I have and I'm not really interested in them. That was my first attempt at cleaning, I mean conserving, an old coin.
