Lovely looking coin. Good for you. Amazing condition. I bought that coins sitting in the ground for a few thousand years would not look like this. Is it unusual to find coins that are in such great shape?
no its pretty common to find gold and silver coins of this age in good shape :) you can find gold Celtic staters which are much old and they look brand new
I could see this grade of coin making £100 in an ebay auction or selling to a dealer and maybe twice that if you were able to sell directly to an interested collector.
However - you have the advantage of having found it yourself!
I'm always prepared to pay more if I'm buying from the finder / detector and they can provide me with info on where it was found - I buy occasionally from a guy who gives me a grid ref of where he found the coin in question and I'm prepared to pay a lot more because of that.
