VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 11/03/2011 3:50 pm I guess as long as I keep it in its flip and the flip in a dry place it should be ok, right? Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 11/03/2011 3:58 pm I have Ren wax, but I've only put it on select coins. The rest have no wax, are kept in their flips in three ring binders, and have been just fine. JW Report this Post to the Staff
VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 11/03/2011 4:03 pm All right that sounds good. Thanks again jw. Really appreciate the help you've been giving me! Also, just curious. I've heard of ancients being soaked in olive oil for many months and even years. How bad does a coin have to look to be immersed for such a long time?

Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 11/03/2011 5:17 pm I have a group of about nine that have been soaking for nearly a year. Every time I take them out I can get a little more crude off them, but not enough. I have a bad feeling they are going to turn out to be slugs, but I will keep at them. They are the last uncleaned coins I bought. I just got tired of the same 4th century coins in bad to not so bad shape. If I could find some I could feel reasonably certain there would be something else under the crude besides the slugs and the Constans/Conatantius II soldier and standards/fallen horseman coins.
