You have quite a selection of methods, many engendering criticism. Electrolysis
is popular, tumbling with various media is another, and there are assorted
chemical treatments. Usually, patina and heavy cleaning are incompatible.
Depends on how far you want to go.

My name is Geremy and im new to collecting old roman coins. It has been a
complete blast so far. Does any one have any great tips on how to clean up old
roman coins? Ive been soaking them in olive oil for a couple of months then
taking a nylon brush and water to them. Im open for suggestions

Thanks
G
