I will tell you what it is but first you've got to tell me where you found it lol, It'ssssssssssssssssssssssssssss................SAXON 7th-8th century sceat and a beauty. Check out Spink 786A, Porcupine type, series E, continental issue.

Title: Re: SEE THIS Post by: waltonbasinman on August 08, 2011, 01:57:54 PM Chef or Peter will I am sure pin it down but I think it is a Sceatta and is from the six to nine hundreds AD for a rough period but I thought these were found on the other side of the country I thought. Still very nice

Title: Re: SEE THIS Post by: The Doc on August 08, 2011, 02:07:33 PM Great coin - Nice ID Chef!
The Spink numbering of these has changed, and this is now 790 rather than 786. Title: Re: SEE THIS Post by: DEADLOCK on August 08, 2011, 02:22:45 PM great coin well old

Its a cracker - well done Pagey Neil Title: Re: SEE THIS Post by: Chef Geoff on August 08, 2011, 06:37:57 PM AHHHH! but he didn't say it was found in Wales ummmm. There is only one recorded with PAS and that was from Powys.
