Title: Gold noble weight from Detectingwales.com Rally Post by: Neil on February 17, 2009, 10:31:37 PM I was wrong and a bit of research has shown that it wasn't a weight for a Gold Angel but rather a Gold Noble. Proves at least that there was some serious money changing hands in the area in the 1500's.
Weighs in at 5.1 grams [you were close DD but no cigar! ;)] Close up photo Title: Re: Gold noble weight from Detectingwales.com Rally Post by: Richy on February 18, 2009, 09:12:57 AM Cracking find Neil , well done mate. :)

Title: Re: Gold noble weight from Detectingwales.com Rally Post by: llanelli club on February 18, 2009, 11:12:18 PM my original guess was 4.8 grames .look thats not a bad guess but as you thought it was an angel weight i thought i was out .0.3g out call me the weighing machine.
i estomated the gold at 1.4g it was smack on. wow a nobble weight now thats fantastic. maybe a nobble may come on the next rally . |
