numhysteria Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Greetings to everyone! It's been a while since I first started reading this forum but it's just now that I managed to create an account. I'm from Romania and glad to be here. Started collecting coins as a kid when my grandparents who live in a rural area found a few coins in the ground. Got those and then I started looking for more coins at my neighbours or relatives. In a short time I ended up with a 200-piece coin lot which I was very proud of. Thought my 1867 10 bani coin was worth a fortune and I used to clean it once in a while with a pencil eraser to make sure it stays in good shape Then I forgot about them coins until a couple of years ago when I found them around the house in a toothpaste box. Since then I've been collecting modern coins, mostly Romanian. Few days ago I bought this coin that's got a carbon spot on it and wanted to know your opinion on whether I should try cleaning it or just leave it like that. I will post a new topic on that hopefully tommorow. Best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, my favourite Romanian lady is this one: On the 2.000 Lei from 1941. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
