I have been asked by Mickeycoin to forward to the site an E mail I had back from Mark Lodwick regarding the Llansannor Gold Coin. I'm glad I got answers for you Micky, just sorry it may not have been the reply we were all hoping for, for you mate. Never mind gold is gold Wink

Hi Rob,
 
The fragment of gold was returned to Steve Sell a couple of months ago. It is not a coin and probably is not an ancient artefact either. We have it recorded as a circular gold disc with punched marks on one surface of indeterminate age, probably comparatively modern. The finder should receive the object back from Steve soon.
 
Thanks,
Mark

What the hell is it then? Who makes indeterminate gold objects? Did it say what the gold content was - I think it going to be 20-23k personally going by the colour and feel of it.

I would love to have known what its purpose was.

This is what I said back in February:

I have searched for a match for the gold item found at the recent rally, but without success. It appears to have been punched with the circular marks, and overall I do not think it is a coin. Shocked

I did go on to say that it could be ancient and needed to be reported as possible Treasure, but they've said it isn't and I'd be happy with that - means the finder got it back Grin
