Coinery Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I know nothing of the period but that doesn't 'look right' to me, has a very cast look about it! Guess they must know what they're talking about! It would be interesting to compare it to the other documented coins to check for any replication. At least I'd want to if I was considering it for myself. Quote

Coinery Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I've just noticed it's awaiting validation? How long does the whole process of registering a find take, then? Anyone know? Quote

Danelaw Posted October 20, 2017 Author Posted October 20, 2017 It can take an age in London. Still waiting for the report on a Roman ring from the Thames. Last year They are swamped with finds and you're limited to ten finds a visit. 1 Quote
