I'll join the UK troop in welcoming you to the forum. You burst in with a bit of a beauty, to say the least. 8)

Good luck & I hope to see more of your great finds.

Personally, I like to see all the stuff you get in an outing, rather than just the hightlights, but your free to post however suits you

Your lucky to have somewhere this time of year!

Welcome to T-Net.
Great find.
Coin looks like R.I.C. 574.
One sold in Sept. for $125 but not as good as yours.
Keep digging.

Welcome to TNET and what a sweet Roman silver!!You are in a special place to treasure hunt .We get excited to find something 200 years old,you guys over there get to pull out 2000 year old stuff.BTW Julia had a rough time of it.She ended up killing herself after her son Caracalla murdered his brother Geta in a struggle for the throne, and Caracalla was himself murdered by a underling looking to become Emperor.
