Have you found an Ancient Coin ?

Are there intrepid coin hunters here besides buyers, like Hadrian’s Wall.
Other neat places.

@galba68 is a detectorist who has found a lot of amazing ancients.

 

Amazing would be an understatement in his case.

 

Glad you quoted me. I noticed my typo. I was able to go back and fix it in my original post. Blame it on the box wine

 

LOL, open up the box!
It is actually “BLADDER-WINE”

 

No coins here, but I did find these ancients

 

Nice. I am a collector of artifacts also. Have hundreds I have found. Very inexpensive hobby.

 

Yes, inexpensive and allot of success if you know where to go.
I would love to find a Hadrian Coin, if only he built a wall in Nebraska to keep the Iowans out....

 

I probably found over 500 Roman coins that I could attribute when I used to metal detect every Sunday for 5 years. Some that come to mind are an Aureus of Nero , Sestertius of Pertinax , Sestertius of Didius Julianus, Tiberius tribute penny. As of Caligula and many many more

 

REALLY, My lord. Where?

 

In Spain when I was there in the Navy. I fell on hard times and sold most of it. I still have this and some coins.

 

I am from Iowa. I found all of mine in SE Iowa. I also have a daughter, 3 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren in Nebraska.

 

Whatever gets the job done

 

Well, living in the boundaries of the former Roman Empire certainly has its benefits.

 

When I lived in Nebraska, I would go out to my grandparent's farm after the fields were tilled in the spring. I would find the occasional arrowhead. Nothing out of the ordinary though.

 

Every one is special
