This is how it was dug with no black or crust so is it the 10% gold type issue ? Reminds me of a 620 AD English Crondall Witmen type - sent to Fitzwilliam museum for recording and ID
Turns out to be a Saxon gold shilling, amazing !!!!!!!!!!!
This new find (EMC 2016.0248) is indeed a Witmen type gold shilling. It is similar to some coins in the Crondall hoard but from dies not represented in the hoard.
The coin should be about 50-55% gold.
An excellent start to the season.
Best wishes,
Dr Martin Allen

I have to say first that this is only a guess based on the ghostly silhouette on the obverse, but solely on the basis of the portrait, I think it's probably Hadrian.
