Gorgeous coin....found a James II Crown when I was over there (gun money), but it wasn't gold. I just nominated your coin for the banner--much nicer than many of the things up there right now. Congrats!

Beautiful coin! Looks like it is clipped a bit as my Dukat was too. Must been a common practice... Big congrats!

That is a very rare one & pasture makes it rarer (I assume at 3 inches it was previously plough)!

First Gold Coin?

If so, 3 years is a short period, but you had the best tool in the box

No prizes for guessing my vote is in!

 

[Ground Inspector]

Awesome coin! You'll get my banner vote when I get on a computer. Congrats!

Wonderful find and you live in a country where I bet you'll find a lot more. Bet your father knows too. Now, go treat yourself to a couple of pints of Newcastle..

 

[CRUSADER]

For those that don't know, Gold Hammered is the hardest gold coin of any, I have 1, Dad has 1, but we have more Celtic/Georgian/Victorian than this. Its a find of a lifetime in the UK. As far as I'm concern.
