Yes something like RIC II, 238. The lettering fits on that side. Edited September 12, 2022 by John Conduitt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPK Posted September 12, 2022 · Supporter Share Posted September 12, 2022 @galba68, if you don't mind me asking, what places do you typically metal detect, and do you get to keep what you find? I also like to go metal detecting, and I can't imagine what it must be like to dig up an ancient Roman coin! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I remember noticing that somewhere. I'm curious if he's just digging these things up in random fields, or what. As an American metal detectorist, I'm reminded of this meme I saw awhile back. 😄 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benefactor DonnaML Posted September 13, 2022 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted September 13, 2022 That rings true, @CPK. But on the other hand, American detectorists probably have better collections of old bottle caps and rusty car parts than Europeans. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But judging by what goes on eBay, it's not all gold 🤣 So many detectorists trying to shift thousands of LRB slugs and medieval buttons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
