3 Roman Bits From Farm Building Site

[stanslad]

Hi All
Been visiting the lads working on a farm building site when out that way in the afternoons, that way after sorting them, the builder & customer out I get to stay on & do some detecting, the good news is the owner has told me they have also purchased the surrounding fields, so I can have a go over them after harvest, these are the best 3 bits so far, any info on coin would be great thankyou, the back has what looks like someone stood up holding hands with someone sat on floor?
regards,
Clint

Edit, just been having a bit of a look and there are a few variations on this reverse type, ie different countrys neeling in front of Hadrian, there is Africa, Gaul, Hispania and a few others. think yours may be to far gone to get the exact one though, sorry mate,its good to be finding them early coins though

Morning Sheriff
these finds were from the spoil that was arable land that the builders took off for landscaping & drainage, they scraped off about 3ft down to 1ft of an area about 120 x 80 metres down the hill towards farm buildings & then spread it on the fields next door, so they done the hard work for me, there is some nice looking pasture, orchards & old gardens down towards the river which I will have a go at in the winter when crops are in the other fields & out of bounds, this job we are working on is a 2 year contract so very handy for digging,

Clint

Sorry CD, its a trumpet brooch from around 100-140 AD Knee brooches are the shape of a knee in the sitting position
