Title: Folly no 2.
Post by: celticspikey on May 01, 2013, 06:25:01 PM
Had another few hours out today, several Roman grots ,lots of lead, and best of all a very nice Folly of Diocletian AD 284-305?, this was found just a few yards from a previous Folly of Maximinus previously posted, I have shown both coins in picture for comparison the one on the right was found today.

Lucky B. What a great area you must live in. The soil is very kind to the coins, they're in great condition, Well found.

Nice coins, but when I saw the bullets I thought you'd been searching on Aberavon beach  ;D
