Nomis, give it a day or two . the way those beauties pop out of your dirt

if you don`t mind, what is the oldest dated coin you or your group has recovered
and just wondering, if you don`t mind. are you able to post dates or time periods to some of the coins you are posting, they are amazing finds. many of your coins i have never seen or dreamed of seeing, so i am very interested in knowing the time periods of some of them ...
thanks a bunch ...

LOL bones i will post them up one day honest i had a new hard drive on my comp , and i lost my files so i will have to dig them out and take new pics . Roger
Absolutely stunning. I can't even comprehend digging up something that old. How deep generally speaking is a find like that? It amazes me that here in the states we might have to dig down a foot to find something 100 years old (if we're lucky), and something that ancient like your piece hasn't sunk out of detecting range. You must have some hard packed soil there, yes?
