Great looking Classic head, they don't pop out very often. Are you going to clean it? The surface looks pretty fragile.

i dont clean them anymore I brush it off dry while the dirt is damp right out the hole with a toothbrush, then I put it in my pocket after it dries for a few hours and the pocket dust highlights the detail. Very technical process :laughing7: The always turn to crap after scrubbing them underwater.
Supernice Early Cent ! Congrats :hello2:
I am convinced about your cleaning method, Will be carrying my toothbrush on all future digs, That coin looks Great just the way it is :notworthy:

It aqlso helps to maintain the nice patina on relics to brush them you of the hole. Like buttons and stuff if they dont have any gold on them then I just dry brush them and leave them
