For some reason (maybe black grass issue) one of our sites has been left over Winter. SS years ago suggested the Roman Tessera (picked a few up, see in picture) might indicate a Bath House, seem a good theory to me.
The conditions are perfectly flat & I'm pretty sure its the first proper grid with the Deus.
We did 6 hours in gale force winds but it was pretty warm really. Only a little rain.

My best example of a Roman Lead Die, I can see all the numbers!
I got a Roman Silver - Scarce Double Header! Marcus Aurelius/Ant Pius AD140 - I can now sell my bronze double header filler I brought years ago!:headbang:

Congrats on the awesome Roman silver Cru!

It's always nice to see your posts. Very well done.
 

Man you guys have some ancient artifacts over there. What are all of the square chunks?
 

Great job congrats on some awesome finds

Roman Tessera or sort of floor tiles, these rough & ready ones are not the type used in fine mosaics.
 

You never fail to amaze me with finds, well done :occasion14:
 

Great job as usual. Love the die and silver ...
 

Cru,

Good score on the Roman silver....I've got a 2 headed Roman coin I bought many years ago....might be the same one.

Simply awesome Cru. Some day I'll make it over there for a swing at the old stuff, but probably not until the kids are grown. Until then I'll sit back and watch your amazing finds continue. Congrats again!
 

Congrats on the double header! Truely a wishlist coin for every roman hunter. :occasion14:
 

Amazing assortment of finds there,
 

Congrats on that great silver!
 

I couldn't even imagine finding coins like that... Just incredible... I wonder if a bunch of us booked flights overseas if we would qualify for group rates!

What's more amazing is that as Dad was checking & logging the bronzes, one of those was a double-header as well! One of each in the same day! Its not a known type because its a 4th C AD coin, which looks like a barbarous issue more in keeping with a mule!
 

excellent coin, and that gaming die is fantastic!
 

Nice one Cru, like that dice, never had one.:thumbsup:

Yes, I had a bit of a personal connection to that one, being a bit of a gambler from time to time. Made me thing of the Roman Soldier (maybe?) that last throw it in a game & lost their denarius.:laughing7:
