See here: clomps of coins !! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...ivers-ancient-marine-cargo-Mediterranean.html
amazing find. fun to look at. that's a lot of coins. will they be able to separate all of those clumped coins ???
That is so cool. I like the clump of sol reverse coins with the sol statue. I'm off to the pool to start practising. ....
Ok, I'd like the Sol lamp and the Luna statue. They would look awesome on top of my coin cabinet. How much?
The sol lamp is just stunning , oh my goodness!!!!! I think I'm lucky to find roman brooches and coins where I live, and some lovely stuff like this does get found from time to time, but the condition of these is something else. I'll post pictures of some of my metal detecting artefacts one day if anyone would like to see them?
Resist the temptation to use a chisel on those clumps..........will they be able to be separated safely? Olive Oyle?
First they will have to decide if they are worth separating. As a display in a museum, they would be more popular as a lump. Of course there is the possibility that there are a few Martinians inside but museums already have them so it would be easier to leave them as a lump.
To date the wreck and the artefacts may be the reason they open up the clump, they will look for the earliest and latest coins. ?
