Dirty Old Coins,
By
This review is from: DIRTY OLD COINS Complete with (5) Genuine, Hand-Struck Ancient Coins (Misc.)
This kit is fantastic for the Uncleaned Roman coin collector in your life. It includes a CD database of Roman coins, so that you can Attribute your coin when it is clean. The brush enclosed works
great to brush off dirt, either dry or after soaking in distilled water. If you want to start collecting ancient coins this is the way to start.

Good gift,

This review is from: DIRTY OLD COINS Complete with (5) Genuine, Hand-Struck Ancient Coins (Misc.)
I gave one set of these to a coin collector and another to an ancient history lover. They were both delighted. I think this item is meant more for young people than adults, but my two recipients got a big kick out of them.
