Title: Can we see the oldest coins you have found in Wales to date? Post by: Neil on February 16, 2012, 11:04:19 AM I know we did this thread a few years ago, but there are so many new members on here that I thought it would be good to run again to provide inspiration.
Lets see what your oldest hammered coin and oldest Roman found so far in Wales are. I know there's a few crackers out there. I'll get the ball rolling Hammered penny of Henry 1st 1100-1135 - Found Wales - Explorer II on stubble. Republican Deanrius of Trebanius 135BC - found Wales - Explorer II on pasture.
