Hello again :)

The coin was found on an island in Denmark, Europe !
On the top of a hill.
It was found in a depth of 6 centimetres.

The coin is very rare in this part of Europe !

Dane,
I don't know much about the coin, but it sounds like one heck of a find. I can't imagine finding a coin that old.
Congrats on your BANNER find!!! :thumbsup: :icon_king:

Any gold coin in any country reflects the amount of time & effort spent (or sometimes luck). Most importantly YOU found it & that is what mades this hobbie the best in the world :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

You ever wonder what kind of history that coin had? Who owned it and how it came about so many years ago on top of a hill.
Good find.
