:hello:

Managed a couple of hours at the road tonight before the heavy rain hit :'( unfortunately they were working late :'( so I had to make do with a small set aside strip which was full of weeds :-[

Didn't think I would have much luck, but to my suprise the first signal turned out to be a hammered coin and a short x at that :o not quite sure yet wether it's a Henry111early short x or a King John, will have to update later :help:

Second and last coin of the night turned out to be my third Roman Silver from the road :headbang: a very nice Septimus Severus :o can't really believe that I only had two coins and both ancient Silver :o SS :thumbsup:

Update on the Roman Silver...Septimus Severus Denarius, EMERSA MINT,194-195AD. IMP CAE L SEP SEV PERT,AVG COSS11, Laurete Head Right/ Boni Eventus, Bonus Eventus Standing Left Holding Basket of Fruits in Right Hand, Grain Ears in Left. BMCRE 343, RSC 68. :thumbsup:

Hi Kirk....don't forget I still have my Roman Villa site to come :thumbsup: and not long to wait for the crop to come of it :laughing7:

I look forward to each and every one of your posts--and when the villa site is harvested, I'm sure there will be some thrilling finds found. :o


That is a Beautiful Roman, and well deserving of being shown off due to condition alone.


A BIG congratulations to you.


Regards,

Silver Searcher,

I believe, the term "older than dirt" would be most apropo at this point.

That is incredible. I go nuts if a coin is 120-130 yrs old and you dig up one of absolute antiquity.

Bravo Sir!! :headbang: :icon_thumright: :icon_thumleft:

Hi SS well done on such fantastic finds.... Congrats on the Banner, you deserve it :icon_thumright:

Would you have any idea on the values of the following coins? These were bought here in South Africa at a coin shop many years ago.

1) Claudius I 41 - 54 AD, Quadrams.
2) 3 of Ailes, Constantine I, 307 - 337 AD.

Sorry to use your topic as a pricing venture, but I just cannot seem to get any values from anywhere.

God bless
Peter
