    Several of you have pointed out the MAJOR Audio problems in this video I am sorry; I had even edited out all the sniffles and HQ is a disaster! I think I must have pushed something to knock it all out of sync! Won't happen again! 🙏

    Congratulations on the finds. I recently found my first ever Sestertius, unfortunately the chalky soils down here in Kent destroy everything copper and bronze that's older than 150 years or so. All I could see was the slight outline of the head.

    I know.. that crosses my mind too Andy, but then it was close to 400 years of occupation so it sort of makes sense... I detect on a field where there was a small house until the 50s... you wouldn't believe the amount of mordern-ish coins etc in that field .... from just ONE small building! Anyway, Hope all well with you and thanks for watching!

    I have a similar sestercius, lovely bit of metal 🙂 Well I clean my roman coins with a toothpick, enough on my sandy soils, but I have a difficult soil and I use the pencil with the brass end to clean them, juste like you, you scratch the concretion until you get to the patina, and it is magic, it doesn't damage the patina on bronze coins (it does on copper coins)

    Hi Alexander. What a great day of quantity and really stunning quality. That sestertius is in great condition (I think the reverse might be Fortuna) and the follis is superb. (it looks as though it is a RIC VI 519b,II/ 520b/ 525b, depending on what Maximian is wearing, from Trier 302-303 AD) Despite its size, that field really is worth traipsing over again and again.

    Good advice on the cleaning, Alex, and as for using metal on metal - professionals can be seen to use a scalpel under a microscope, so don't give the cleaning snobs any leeway whatsoever! Wish my soil was as kind as yours - them there coins are remarkable. Great video as ever, boyo.
