    Hello!
    The focus of my collection is the Gallic Empire (both official and unofficial coins).
    I have a good number of coins for all the emperors (I'm searching only a Domitian II :joyful:).

    So, during the years I have incresed my collection with new sections: the Britain usurpers Carausius and Allectus, the London mint during the Constantinian era,
    but most of all coins with hoard provenance.

    Now I have a great number of coins from 23 different hoard (mainly british finds, but also from France and Germany). All my sources are obviously legal (only professional sellers) and all the hoards are from recorded and studied hoard (Normanby, Blackmoor, South Petherton, Beachy Head, Hollingbourne, Irchester, Langtoft I and II, Reyssouze ect).

    So I'm searching coins with this provenance :shame:... I have tried for a long time to buy coins from the Braithwell Hoard, but the only seller who deals these coins (on vCoins) do not ship to Italy :rage:

    Do you know some other seller who deals this type of coins?

    Many thanks!
