Edward the Elder silver penny Super rare!!

[Rob1981]

Hi guys thought I'd share this lovely find with you, Edward the Elder silver penny, 899-924AD found today on our permission in Hertfordshire, England, apparently there has only ever been one of these found complete in the UK and maybe I've just found the second one, so this ones gonna be declared.

It's slightly bigger than a UK penny.

Also found this Roman coin today.
Constan-tinopolis 307-337 it's a small coin the size of an old half pence UK coin.

Rob.

As rare of a find as that is it should be a banner find for sure.

I agree banner.....rare would be an understatement if it is what it is believed to be!

Very nice find indeed, it doesn't need to be declared as treasure, if that's what you are referring to, just recorded on the coin corpus. Stunning saxon coin.

Cut out the middle man & get it recorded properly, NOT via the FLO as it will only get a PAS ref & not the EMC ref.
