🥇 BANNER *****update. Confirmed first of this design ever found… 2,000 years old (approx) My first ever GOLD COIN and how beautiful it really is 🤩… ! xx ****

[blossom]

So after a busy couple of weekends today we at last went detecting!!

Spent the morning in the “quiet” field and found a hammered and another silver coin(?) so was super happy with that. After lunch i decided to go to his field where he has found countless Romans, just to annoy him! Found a few bits so decided to head back to the truck as it started raining.. and the wind was hitting 40mph 😬…. when bang a super crisp 72 sounded in my ears.. dug nd saw the gleam of gold.. automatically assumed button.. but oh my days.. there sat a gorgeous little GOLD STATER needless to say Himself was furious that I had found it in his field… but I did get a hug and grudgingly he said “well done” 😂😂😂 ….! I havent found the same one online yet..… but wanted to show you all!!



We also found a gorgeous fibula, a dress hook, half a spur, a patterned piece, this weird lumpy bit, second pic to show you the top, little bits, chunky lead weight, tiny buckle and bit, spoon handle and modern bit, small shot, clog strap and strange lead bit, a silver tab (did the tin foil test) buttons galore, a hammered, and finally a silver disk 🤔(again passed the tin foil test) xx

What a truely awesome day we have had.. and so pleased to be able to add a gold to my already unbelievable stats this year 😎 xx

How deep was your Gold coin?

 

[pepperj]

Ahh thank you… honestly still trying to work out why he didnt dig it up…😂😂 xx

I have given this one a bit of thought, here's my take on why.

When the Romans are as thick as pull tabs at a picnic site.
Himself just cleared them away, for the more learn-ed blossom to get the rare type of gold.

***ARC wildly looks around***

Did someone say "pulltab" ? ? ?

 

[jlbuchanan]

Congrats! Beautiful coin.
