Hi Guys

I went to see one of my farmers today, i showed him a viccy six punce i found on his land and thought seen as there is some crop due to be cut id offer him the coin !! the bugger took it lol

So later on i thought id go and give his pasture a quick going over next to a river, apart from a couple of bits of costume earrings and a couple of george coins i found this.

From what i can make out or what i think is the obverse i can see the letters CIVS top left and thats it really.

PLEASE BE ROMAN!!!!!!!!!
