Just a little bit, i need to see the details..🙄 Should I leave it in destilled water?I wouldn't; it's beautiful as is.
But if it's Tyche, Secvritas or Salus seating on the reverse, I couldn't tell you.

I don’t know but next time I will look after!Do you have any honey locust trees where you live? The ones with big thorns? I saw a guy on YouTube using them to scrape crud from Roman coins without damaging bronze patina. Check YouTube for “coin cleaning”.
Wouldn't a toothpick do the same thing? Or are they too hard or something?Do you have any honey locust trees where you live? The ones with big thorns? I saw a guy on YouTube using them to scrape crud from Roman coins without damaging bronze patina.

It is silverA fantastic find - congrats !
If you do decide to clean it in any way be very careful.
It's very easy to loose detail /damage old bronze coins if you clean them the wrong way.
Keep in mind - this process can not be undone !
Good Luck !
I dont know unfortunately:/Is there any place that professionally clean coins ?
