Hi fellow UKer, hope to see more good stuff like this.

Have you tried the following, it would work well on this one. Get some tinfoil, fold the coin in it with some spit & rub it together several times. Comes out great without damaging the coin!

Thanks all for your comments: its nice to find a small hammered.

Crusader hello m8t always look in awe at the roman in particular that

you find i have several Denarri but few tidy bronzes.

O.K. on the foil and spit method will give it a go the main part of the

coin that aint been clipped shows very good detail.

H.H. to you all and will post again soon...PaulB. 8)
