Roman Metal Working Site - Day 2 - CELTIC & ROMAN SILVER...

[CRUSADER]

Firstly I'm still in a T-shirt in November!
We only had a short 2.5 hour window to grid this ankle breaker but it was well worth it. One of my best short hunts in awhile! Cru'Dad saved himself on the last run & contributed 1 Roman Coin to the haul.

8 Roman Bronze Coins
Roman Iron Locking Mechanism
Roman Silver of Trajan AD108
Roman Silver of Gallienus
Roman Fibula with pin, but bent
Celtic (Iron Age) Bracelet bit
Roman Bronze Bead
A copper-core of an imitation denarius of one of the Julia's - UPDATE; ''Just realised that the big lettering on that Bronze is actually Greek/Foreign and it is our first Roman Provincial coin. Those coins are thicker and heavier as AE bronzes. Just not sure which Province & Empress yet''
Silver Unit of the Corieltavi tribe AD 45BC-10BC
Tasciovanus Bronze Unit circa 20BC - A new & very rare type to my collection.

I assume these are in the first picture. But as I am a baby to ancient Roman artifacts, could you please confirm this?

 

[Professor of Engineering]

What can I say?

Great finds, congratulations!

 

[Scrappy]

Very nice early silver units. Question for us laymen...which one is the rare bronze unit?

Great finds again Cru

Amazing coins! The people and faces on them are incredible. I can't imagine the things they bought, and the people that cherished them. It sure must be an incredibly used area. To bad you couldn't have stayed longer!
