<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HoldingHistory, post: 1556988, member: 41668&quot;]Thank you very much, the information is very interesting. I think I will be doing some more research on this!</p><p><br /></p><p>So, for anyone who doesn&#039;t want to look through the article, the quick answer is about a 1 1/2 months pay for a cavalryman. Definitely makes it more valuable to me owning this coin knowing how treasured it would have been to the original owner. I would imagine someone carefully buried it for safekeeping, but never came back. Perhaps a soldier, killed in battle? We will never know, but it is an amazing feeling holding it in my hand. I am only 18, so hopefully I have plenty of time to acquire more gold pieces, I really like them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nathan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
