3 Roman Coins

« on: November 05, 2014, 09:48:31 AM »

Hello,

Found these three beauties in a couple of fields on a glorious Halloween day. A couple of them were dug up by badgers (just to clarify, I don't employ badgers, I found them in the mounds next to their holes!).

I'm thinking the one that's in mint condition is a Crispus. Anyone know what the other two are?

Many thanks, Kevin.

How did you manage to train badgers to dig up coins for you? Amazing! Cheesy

Plenty of detail on the coins, very nice.

Using badgers is an advanced technique, these fellas were a great help. The only problem is they are not the neatest. I tried to show them how to dig and re-fill a hole to no avail - The farmers field was a right mess!
