A lovely silver sixpence I found. Proudly displaying the bust of George V and dating to the year 1915.
5 years later in 1920 the royal mint changed the silver content from 92.5% to 50% #metaldetecting #history #savinghistory #silver #georgeV #coin

This was a find that I thought was just a round piece of iron ,until I decided to start braking off the outer casing. To my absolute delight and shock ,there was in fact a Roman coin of commodus inside! Dating from the year 175-192 . #metaldetecting #history #Roman #commodus
