Gaz T Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 I think this coin must have been almost uncirculated when dropped. Over the years of being in the ground it had taken its toll, maybe if found it the year before it would have been perfect. It still gave me a massive buzz finding it so it still gets a place with my best finds. 5 Quote
VickySilver Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Wow! Was that a surface find or a metal detector find? Why sad, as it seems better to have it than not? Quote

Hi, it was a detector find. Yeah much better to have it, but such a shame about the damage. I guess its not done too bad saying it was rolling around in a plough field for many years. Quote

Gaz T Posted January 20, 2019 Author Posted January 20, 2019 I bet a few people over the years have lost their heads due to losses. Maybe not so bad with a sovereign loss. Well i hope not !!😨 Quote
copper123 Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 Bet the person who lost it was really gutted - must have been a couple of weeks wages back then Quote
