Title: Few Hours Search. Post by: celticspikey on December 08, 2016, 06:42:46 PM Hi guys, I had a few hours on Med 1 field today, seeded and sticky under foot due to rain, so not the best of conditions for searching. Anyway the best and most welcome was the early Saxon Sceat, I know its a Porcupine type but it appears to have a slightly different reverse, TOT in the corner of flan...Any help please with the ID.....The other silver coin in group shot is a really small and worn roman siliqua.......Thanks for looking.

Not often one of those little Roman coins come up either. Well done again. Title: Re: Few Hours Search. Post by: Resurgam on December 17, 2016, 10:56:07 AM What a lovely find and in such superb condition. Perhaps more where that came from! ;)
