[QUOTE="Bart9349, post: 8348364, member: 5682"][ATTACH=full]1480930[/ATTACH] I’m having a hard time identifying the Numidian coin in a recent Suffolk, UK hoard: Is this it or is this a Roman Republic coin? [ATTACH=full]1480929[/ATTACH] An unusual find, indeed: Metal detectorist George Ridgway, 30, found the 725 Iron Age and Roman pieces after studying satellite imagery near his Suffolk home.” “His massive haul includes a rare denarius, issued by King Juba I in the ancient African kingdom of Numidia between 60 and 46BC; Iron Age gold coins known as staters, from the reign of Celtic king Cunobelin, who ruled in Colchester from 10AD to 40AD; and a gold Claudius I-era aureus, dated between 41 and 42AD.” [URL]https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10826573/Detectorist-30-inspired-Indiana-Jones-finds-65-000-Roman-hoard.html[/URL] I found this article interesting for me (a non-numismatist) about Numidian coins.
