Trajan Sestertius As It Shall Stay

Too fragile..I felt I was doing more harm that good cleaning it and detail was lost quickly due to the fragile patina. I've left it like this after digging out the outlines of a couple of the characters (loosing quite a bit of patina in the action).






Notice the detail on the hands giving the roman salute (its called something else these days). They show all 5 fingers. If I dont sell it, I might invest in a false patina...get it one colour, it might look nicer.
