Popped the silver bodkin and my hammered into Glamorgan & Gwent Archaeology Dept in Swansea yesterday and they were very interested in the bodkin. They gave me a receipt for it and are sending it to Cardiff Museum. They identified the hammered as a long cross Edward 1st penny.

Just to say had a great rally, really enjoyed the view and picked up 2 hammered, sadly both a little worn, but fab finds, and loads and loads of "bits" lol.

thanks to wayne for the food - superb as normal Smiley and thanks to the guys behind the scenes that made it all happen. 

Here are my two - I think one is a james maybe, no idea on the other.

great couple of days Smiley looking forward to the next one

Nice finds. The little one looks like Charles I to me - what's the other side like? Other one is Edward I or II penny.

great report Neil and well done everyone on making it a huge success.

denarii number 3 looks like that of emperor nerva 94 to 96AD
