Title: Samian ware and Trajan Denari close up . . .
Post by: Neil on March 05, 2009, 07:36:15 PM
Hi everyone.

This is the Samian ware I mentioned in my last post. If you look closely at the one far left and high it has a panther running right in th far right sectioned area. All of these were found in holes whilst digging lead! My hand gives you an idea of the scale - I'm an XL in gloves.

The close up are of the Denari as someone asked (sorry I forget who)

I have had the mint ID'd as Rome 109AD. Any more information would be warmly accepted.

cheers
Neil
