A rather exquisite Iron Age Gold Stater of Dubnovellaunus in Essex

An unexpected find from that part of the field. The site of a demolished farm labourers cottage.

Oh. That's a lovely find. People, when they see these in displays, are surprised to learn how tiny they are. Tiny as in 7.5mm.

Iโ€™m always curious to know what the value of ancient currency was with respect to a workerโ€™s wages or goods and services, e.g., would buy a bolt of fine cloth or a weekโ€™s wages for a plowman.

Any idea?

Nice. NGC has an ancient division. I have had several old coins graded and encapsulated.
