My First Roman Gold ID Help

I apologise for my mistake Monkeybean. I am not a detectorist and am simply trying to interpret the laws as I found them during an online search. The link I shared did not distinguish coins from all other finds. This is motivated by a sense of incredulity that someone could find a valuable and potentially historic coin, yet not have to report it simply because it was found alone. I was apparently mistaken to have developed the impression that you were reluctant to report your discovery. I am glad to hear that you will, at least, report it to your FLO as after all this great coin is part of the history of the land.

If you wish I will remove any comments I made which revealed my doubts about your conduct....or if you prefer, for the sake of an honest historical record, I will leave them standing to expose my guilt.

No hard feelings or harm done , there is not benefit in not reporting finds , in fact getting provinence is very beneficial to a detectorists collection .

Thanks, Med.

Good! Now we can get on with congratulating M.B. with what is an incredible 'find' that ANY of us would give our right arm, (well our partner's right arm) for.

M.B. THAT is what keeps us going - whether we are 'out there', or, we are in the 'Auction Houses'.

You give us HOPE!

Now that's a good reason for the U.S. to take over the world.

During my next round of talks with B.O. tomorrow, I will raise it.

A few scratches but that coin is in great condition..nice find.

Peter! Haven't dug up any unexploded 'ordnance' in the vege patch have we?

Amazing find. Gratz!
