WOWWWW amazing find. I love the hammered silver and these are great looking designs on the coins. So im guessing they are early 1300's era silver peices? I just researched Edward the 3rd some, seems he was a pretty good king. My family was still living there when he was king so they probably knew of him. ;D

?? why can't you keep the coins??
Hi...two or more Ancient coins of precious metal are classed as treasure and you have to declare them :'( :'(
So, had you found just one, then you'd get to keep it?
Yes......two or more coins of a precious metal is classed as treasure trove :thumbsup:

To tell you the truth I have no idea but I know they had to have been there during the time of King Edward cause they wernt in America yet. ;D They all moved here from Scotland, England, and Ireland in the past 200 years, then again I think most American families did. We have some pictures of my gg grandfather in his British uniform during the India Campaign in 1896? and some more pics of him in ww1 but he moved to the states sometime in the 20's, thats all I know of us in the UK haha. I should find out and go detect there lands. ;D Detecting over there is ALOT better then it is here, our finds bottom out around 1620ish. Too bad the Romans didnt colonize the America's 2k years ago. haha Can you detect in Ireland and Scotland? I know of family still in those countries but for some reason I think I remember hearing its illegal there.

Wonderful finds! :thumbsup:

Living here in treasureless northern Michigan we never dig such things. I've purchased many from diggers over in your part of the world but that's as close as I've gotten to these beauties.
