Great finds!...That Salonina looks like it will clean up nicely!...I'm an avid MD'er aswell.....you must be in the UK?!
A friend of mine from bowling asked if I had any very inexpensive ancient coins I could sell him. I gave him a half dozen or so culls or near culls. He has a friend that likes to go MDing. So his plan is to bury these culls where his friend will find them. Imagine what a surprise when he finds Roman coins buried in U.S. soil. Not the usual bottle cap or U.S. dime.
I foresee a new segment on a cable TV channel investigating who were the mysterious visitors from ancient times to have visited North America a thousand year before Columbus, centuries before the Vikings.
