« on: March 19, 2011, 05:21:22 PM »

Here are a few layers of of my finds cabinet, and thats just the junk Undecided

The Roman coins are not a hoard, before anyone asks, but it shows how many have been dropped over their occupation of 400 years.

I'm sure there is plenty to find in Wales, it's just a case of walking over it.

Not sure about "plenty in Wales" Avalon - I think the Welsh invented zips and velcro long before the rest of the world caught on Grin

I reckon several counties in England have seen a lot denser - as in more people Cheesy

- habitation across hundreds of years than we have here in Wales.

Fabulous collection - well done.

This is one of my favorite finds, it's now on long term lone to the Corinium museum. A sword pommel from a La Tene III anthropoid sword hilt in the form of a male head. The head has an elaborate hairstyle of five braids emanating from knobbed terminals at the forehead.
