This is the same coin I posted earlier as "Constantine the Great" (which it's not). After the first week of soaking, scraping, and scrubbing, I removed most of the encrusted dirt that covers the details. I'm going to keep it in for another few weeks to get the final layer off, but I think this is enough to make it more identifiable. What do you think? It's about the size of a US penny.

Looks good. I don't think I would clean it any more. There is enough bronze showing through now.
