I found this in a random bulk lot a while back, but electrocuted it before I knew how to clean. It still looks pretty, but I`d have rather not electrocuted it.

Dan please don't use that method to clean coins. It strips the patina and pits the coin and in a worse cases eats away whatever image that is there.

That isn't Septimius Severus. The bust is Commodus.
