Went out today 17th Jan it was extremely cold but otherwise very bracing ,Decided to try the field that produced the Woad Grinder and the new type Roman Brooch from last week , but the 1st time a signal was received l realized the frost had made the ground so hard that it was impossible to dig !! So l almost called it a day. But as l had made the effort to travel several miles to the farm l decided on another approach , the adjoining field was still stubble from around six months ago and had quite a bit of weed growth and l thought it would be much easier , which proved to be the case, so l had about 3 hours or so on that. And am l glad l did..
This years 1st GOLD coin a beauty. and 4 days sooner into the year than last year. Hutch.:hello2:

wow that is spectacular! :headbang:
 

Well done my good man, that's one handsome coin right there. Banner vote is in.
ZDD
 

Who comes up with these values? A 2,000 year old gold coin should be worth a fortune... And the fact that it was found by someone willing to go fond these things should add value... Petition I say.... PETITIOOOOOON :p
 

Oh how do I vote banner?
 

Thanks soapy. So it's about the size of a U.S nickel? Pretty good size coin!! Holding, yet alone finding, something that has not changed from that far in the past, and was witness to the time of Christ and before, has got to be fascinating.
 

Niiiice detail on that puppy!
 

You won't anything like that in the states. I'm still searching for pre1900


That's just incredible
 

Congrats. Amazing find!! BANNER!
 

The fact that you are saying this is your FIRST gold coin of the year is unbelievable. I need to get over there.
