Title: Re: i d silver coins Post by: romano-brit on May 26, 2009, 06:38:36 PM top ones a Galba
and the bottom looks like a Trajian do you collect denari? or are they from a hoard? Title: Re: i d silver coins Post by: ROMAN STEVE on May 26, 2009, 08:19:08 PM ive been detecting for 32 yrs so
they have been collected over the yrs as well as other roman coins Title: Re: i d silver coins Post by: hedgehog on May 26, 2009, 09:10:26 PM Nice ones again Steve, the Galba is a rare find, would be best to find out whether it is one of the more common varieties, 69 ad was a bad year for being an emperor, three of them didn't last the year out!!

Title: Re: i d silver coins Post by: hedgehog on May 27, 2009, 08:08:33 AM Hi Steve (again) , this will tell you about the rest of the information on the coin and if you translate it will tell you the actual year that the coin was produced or thereabouts! They are worth the interpretation when cataloguing them .
