There is a storm and our power is out. And I’m huddling next to the window looking at muddy Roman coins in the remnants of sunlight.

Yes indeed! I have been soaking them in distilled water, which I change daily, and have been scrubbing them with a stiff toothbrush. Slow but steady incremental progress. I guess it _should_ take time to remove thousands of years of mud and patina. Wild to imagine the journey they have had.
