Brooch and coin

[robfinds]

Well had a couple of decent finds, both centuries apart. The coin is a hammered silver penny of probably Edward I, 1272-1307 London mint, the brooch is a Roman 2nd century disc brooch, Still with most of it's enamel intact. Had both on the same field, and only a few yards apart !. Sorry about the blurred pictures, it's dark now in Yorkshire.

Robert.

Hello Colin, old field, a shadow of it's former self. Did you enjoy the gales yesterday.

Great brooch! You dig them rarely with that much enamel left.

Dug Roman brooches don't come much nicer than that! I was in Colchester area this fall & dug five decent hammies!

Yeap thats a nice example & not broken, the hammered's a bonus.

That's an amazing pair of finds right there, either of those beauties would certainly make my year. Impressive to say the least, congrats.
