Nice couple of keepers there Steve. I'd freak to dig coins that old. Congrats and GL out there.

The camp gate coin was minted in the city of Augusta Treverorum, currently the German city of Trier.

Fascinating Don, cheers [emoji106]

Translation of the legend on the camp gate coin, PROVIDENTIAE AVGG, is a Latin abbreviation of Providentiae duorum Augustorum meaning dedicated to the foresight of the two emperors.

Beauties! They rarely come in this condition!

 

[beepbleep]

Wow, that was hundreds of years before anything I could possibly find. Congratulations! Curious how deep something like those were?

 

[Aureus]

The coins are in a mind blowing condition! Found in the woods ? Congratulations!

Somewhat true taken as a whole, but if I had to guess which would come up nice it would include those 3 & the globe on alter type. So they are a common type to come up nice, & we think it was the quality of the bronze used for those coins.

 

[CRUSADER]

Those Germans in Trier, seem to be quality minters as that's where all 3 were minted.

Congrats. Grid that area until a Silver pops up.
