I've been talking down on American roman coin dealers and don't know the answer for guess the Emperor, Caesar, or Empress. So I decided to post the one good coin I got from
American Coin on ebay in a uncleaned lot. Its Cripus and it looks like it wasn't circulated too much other than the wreath on the right bottom, it's not worn down. I also clean it much more than this because I'am not one for the patina, but I didn't want to risk damaging it in the process. What do you guys think.

I don't want to, but it aggravates me a little that the CAE is covered by dirt on the reverse. Do you know of a way to clean just a small part?

Dwayne - its a nice coin! Bit uneven in the fields but the design and legends stand out.

You could try being really careful with a lemon slice? I've heard those used to highlight detail - put some salt on it and sub on the afflicted area.
