Its a cold, wet night, so lets have a look at some of the Roman coins that DW members have found in Wales. Most of the ones I find tend to be in a bit of a state (well you would be too after 2000 years!), but there are the odd exception.

All the ones below were found in Southish Wales from The VOG to Brecon to Gwent.

So come on guys lets see your Welsh found Romans - I know some of you have some crackers in your collections. Even if its just to prove that they are to be found in Wales.

Cheers
Neil

None from Wales I am afraid. All my roman, six coins and one brooch are Herefordshire finds.
