TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 5:18 pm Here is my Maximianus before and after cleaning. I worked mainly on the portrait. I do not think the legends will hold up to any more cleaning. I may try to the cape to come out better on the reverse but I plan to leave it as is for now.

Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 5:53 pm Is the color accurate? If so, I would leave it alone for sure. It appears to be the red sand patina called Syrian Red. Highly sought after and adds a little value to the coin. Looking good. Report this Post to the Staff

TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 09/06/2012 11:21 pm Thanks for the kudos everyone. JW. Yes it is a nice red patina (Syrian Red:) It actually shows better in hand but I am still learning how to use my new camera and light set up. And even you may approve of the price;)?
