Al Kowsky Posted January 18, 2023 · Member Share Posted January 18, 2023 A friend in FL just sent me a link to a spectacular metal detectorist find in Somerset, England 😮. https://www.thearchaeologist.org/blog/a-1800-year-old-roman-signet-ring-engraved-with-the-goddess-of-victory-found-in-a-field-in-somerset 7 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deinomenid Posted January 18, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2023 Hi Al, Doesn't diminish the find at all but this was quite a while back - I can't remember if it was sold or not, but was a fair few years ago. I think that article is clickbait recycling old stuff as news. May have stayed in the British Museum. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see a date on that article & wasn't aware of that find, but I should have suspected it was an old article 🤔. I have friends, relatives, & old customers who frequently send me articles on coins & antiquities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
