    1850 years old coin that I've been waiting for 5 years to find.

    Hi, everyone !!!
    I always wanted to find a Roman Empire coin. Finally, I did !!!
    I'ts my best find, since I got myself MD.

    It's Faustina's the Elder coin, covered with nice green patina. Just have to wait till all sand and dirt comes off...
    Coin is taking a bath in olive oil, I wonder how long will it take to gently remove all dust off of it ?
    Anyway.... I got a lot of time - no hurry. Coin is mine.

    Here is the link to some info about Faustina the Elder.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faustina_the_Elder



    Pozdrawiam Matejko
