Valentinian 2nd GOLD SOLIDUS
On the 22nd of January 2025 a certain Macsen Wledig posted "Your bucket Lister" and sometimes dream's and wishes do come true a not very productive day turned into an unforgettable one not very deep but a 19/20 on the Nox 800 and the detecting god's looking down on me out came this little beauty.Its a Gold Solidus of Valentinian 2nd minted in Trier it's not often I take photos in the field and I think I dropped it 3 times before I managed it.Ive been over this field so many times it is a big one but I'm beyond happy and celebrating with a couple of ciders. Thanks for looking Rob

That's a right corker Rob, I think it was rightly found by you as I see it bears your name on the reverse ![[88/]](./images/smilies/88_EmoticonsHDcom.png "BigGrin")
