See what you can do with a little spurring on :laughing7: I hit the banner button now.:thumbsup: Nice one Rob.

Looks like a Early uninscribed gold stater, British (Corieltauvi) type I, big payday if it is.

Hello Steve, coins long sold. Think I can rustle up a picture of most of them. Should be on a memory stick somewhere.

Late to the game, but will add my vote to the stack.

You were overdue this with the roll your on, I knew it was coming, you put the time & effort in. For me, 1 Celtic Gold makes the year, so looks like an early hit should set up your 2015.

CONGRATS

Hello Plumbata, not sure of weight, kitchen scales not working. Probably about 6 grams.

Nice to see it weighing up there, any ID as of yet? Really liking the strike on the coin it's a beauty, and should be up there soon.

Maybe it needs a bath? :)

Wow that's really incredible! You must be super bummed that you didn't find a hammered silver but that will have to do until you get your next lol. Great job buddy I'm super psyched for you. It's hard to wrap your head around a coin of that age being in such incredible condition. The beauty of gold. Let's see that sucker up top
