Man I really like that coin, it's beautiful. Don't see many Byzantine finds!

Wow! Maybe there is a sunken treasure of epic proportions somewhere in the area.

That coin is in amazing condition for having been on a beach for so long. Blowing sand will wear down the surface of any coin. Great find.

The beach is a small one and during the winter the waves take away the sand but before the summer the owner of the restaurant brings new sand from somewhere. So I have to learn were do they get it!
