Thank you for your timely response regarding coin cleaning.  Your
remarks validate my original opinion that cleaning might result in
irreparable damage.  Hopefully through lighting and display, and an
explanation of why the coins appear so dark, we can educate the visitor
while sharing these artifacts with the public.
