closed NGC colosseum hoard Roman coin ancient

[Leonmarsh]

What better provenance that a Roman coin found in a hoard at the colloseum 

£125 plus post open to offers over £100 but won't be bummed on this will just keep it as a talking point rather than get my arse rooted 

2000 years of history, think about it before you buy a Winnie the pooh 50p

 Well that's really cool. I know nothing about old coins and tried a bit of googling on this but I only seem to get the coin or images of the book it came with.

 Do you have a link to any info about where/when this was found?

[Leonmarsh]

There is limited info other than the booklet which is surprising given the significance of where they were found 

survived in high-grade mainly due to the fact that it was buried in very dry, chalky soil which prevented any type of wear or acids to deteriorate the condition of the coin. It was discovered as part of the "Colosseum Hoard" group of over two thousand silver denari

The coin itself on its own can be bought sub 100 but I guess with the NGC provenance one of only 2,000 slabbed it doesn't get better if you want a hoard coin 

It's better than from the hoard of Dingle hill in somewhere like Bedford

Quite fancy this. Have the Denarius from his son Caracalla so would make a nice addition. How does £110 posted sound?

[Leonmarsh]

@JamesH £115 posted sounds better ! If your ok with that pm me as I will send special delivery 

However I don't think I will be able to post til Tuesday or Wednesday
