Since you already made the A.D. 68 dudes proud, go and make the 68 B.C. dudes proud. ;)

Re: ROMAN WILVER

Crusader, you have done it again ;D that is a great looking coin that is full of wonderful history.
I would be on my bed now dreaming about who lost the coin? what did he or she look like? Was it a rich or poor person? Well you know what I mean..... Each find tells a story ::)

God bless

Re: ROMAN WILVER

Below is all I had until I got back to my bike.

I thought I will just try along the edge for a few minutes as I needed to be back in time for Mum's Birthday meal. First signal was strong & being close to the gateway I thought it was a piece of broken can. So very surprised to see a Roman Silver. I did a Rex Hunt kiss but never put it back :-*

Its our 4th Roman silver this year which is already a record & we are only halfway through the year 8)

I'm waiting for Gunner's thoughts as its not in my Sears book & I believe it to be a Very Rare Variant. :o
