1953 VIP Proof Halfcrown Help with obverse Dies
craigy replied to youliveyoulean's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
the rare one is the frosted proof from the plastic set, i of DEI to a space, anything else is bog standard, trust, i got ripped off by Ingram coins over one of these coins so i am now a bit of an expert -
I assume its a well clipped silliqua under 1600 odd years of crud , as it has been pierced in antiquity it falls under the Treasure act
-
i know he's got some serious coinage
-
there was a small smattering of late ironage pottery but no coins, this could also be early roman as well, the hole area is covered in roman farmsteads, i have boxes of pottery and ceramic build material, roof tile, hypercaust, floor tile then nothing after the roman period apart from the odd lizzi 1 and a couple of eddies thats it
-
because the patina is the same around the hole and no other evidence of habitation has come off that field other than roman and neolithic and the coin is still on the ROMAN VILLA AREA, IF IT WAS FOUND AND DONE LATER THE COIN WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST SOMEWHERE ELSE UNLESS ITS PURE COINCIDENCE IT WAS LOST ON A ROMAN VILLA SITE, sorry didnt mean to write in caps, i have no doubt its contemporary
-
better than a whole mint one in my opinion, the fact a Roman or saxon person or even later made a hole in it for what ever reason, has some real personal contact to it, if that makes sense, i'd say the hole was contemporary with the age of the coin, and not done at a later date as this was from a villa site that i discovered a few years back, take the Groats of Edward I they always nearly turn up gilded and made into a brooch, rare as hens teeth unaltered
-
beautiful designs that era, our modern designs are utter pap lol
-
what is my one lol
