First one I reckon is an Indian fanam,often mistaken for Iron Age coins This sort of thing http://www.catawiki.com/catalog/coins/countries/india/3120717-india-gold-fanam-1700-1800

The second one is think is a styca Bit like this one http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showrecords.php?product=43750&cat=92

Just wanted to say well done on finding & recording a superb coin,I found a unique coin a couple of yrs ago & recorded it with M.Allen at the fitz so I know how you feel,although mine was a patch on yours.

It looks like one of these I'm afraid http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/showrecords.php?product=8109&cat=274

Thanks folks, Colin G- yep I'm on a few forums,Rogers,Xp owners etc. Peter- your in a great county,but time is everything,I get out as often as poss,i do lots of short sessions 2 hrs at a time. Coinery- I've been swinging a Goldmaxx power for a good few yrs now,have found hundreds of hammerds with it & wouldn't swap it for anything currently available,I use the 9 ,11, & elliptical coils as and when.

Cheers Garrett ,you could always try nugget hunting or panning,Thats a good looking coin in your avatar,I've only found one Philip & Mary,a Groat, so I've only got the old bags portrait lol.

Just wondered if anyone can confirm the mint & moneyer for this first coinage Alex.III Penny,reverse reads ROCT( )ER,has been suggested that it's most likely Robert at Berwick ,any thoughts welcomed.

Hellooo,have been nosing around for a while,reading & drooling over some coins & decided to join up,I'm another one of those detecting anoraks lol,i don't actually buy any coins but still consider myself a collector. My main aim is to find at least one coin from every ruler From 1066-1900,I'm pretty close to achieving this ( I'm not including Ed.V or Cromwell ) My fav.period is the late Saxon coinage,if I find one a year then I'm doing well & I'm also partial to Celtic coinage,my avatar is a iceni Q.stater,irstead type,the first one I ever found so a fav. Am gonna try to upload a rather nice Ed.III Noble I found for your perusal. Im trying to improve my ID skills so will prob.be bothering you with questions at some point,john.
