Steve Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I was quite surprised how cheap bronze Roman coins are on eBay. especially when they are not cleaned. I googled why and seems they produced so many bronze coins that many survived. Saying that silver and gold roman coins are a kettle of fish cost wise, there is a gold coin going on eBay for £135,000... sweet find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorsetman Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 It's still amazing to find anything old (even early 20th century) and particularly something as old as Roman civilisation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying to the wife about how many pots of gold there are out there. I bet there are loads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, not sure I would necessarily tell the wife if I did find a pot of gold 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
