Too porous for my liking. Very akin to a sand casting. Id leave well enough alone.

It does not look OK.

Pish, when you post these, could you post other helpful information like size, weight, attribution, etc. Or just post the link. I doubt anyone is going to snipe your coins.

Yeah--the surfaces bug me too, as does the profile and Zeus's shoulders--a little too clumsy.
Update--gave this more thought, and the style of drachms varies a lot. The porosity near the feet of Zeus looks a lot like silver embrittlement I see on my ancient coins.
