Title: Silver coins
Post by: Mark on May 29, 2009, 05:48:03 PM
Out today in the scorching heat with my brother (Jaydogg) and found these two silver coins.  Most of the land we go on is under crop so we didn't expect to find much on this ‘emergency site’, but we were very pleased with these two coins.  We didn’t stay long as the heat was intense, but it’s nice to know that even the most worked out of sites can still produce every now and then.

Nice finds sir. The more I see the modern coins in the flesh so to speak, the more I like them.

Thanks for the comments guys.  Went back to the same field a few days after and found a Georgian/Victorian fob seal and my brother found a few Roman coins also.  I’ll try to post some pictures later.
