Park Finds - first Roman Silver (FAKE)

[CRUSADER]

I'm not lucky enough to have TK's fields at this time of year. So as Dad was away I went to try & finish the Park (nearly did but still some way to go). The floods had finished but the park was still nice & wet.

Spent 4 hours digging tons of pull tabs & can bits.

Only £1.79 ($3.50) as this side of the park had no £1 coins but more older coins instead.

Found a silver 1921 Sixpence, only the second silver from this park

A nice Roman Silver

Got my first Georgian from this site at 10" (not very good one though)

and lots of fun in this T-shirt weather 8)

Its at this point, I add its a Copy (got 'WRL' on reverse). Found only 1" deep in a park. Must have been a kid playing. This is the second Copy I have found although the other one was 100metres away.
