Jeff did a first for the club with double Saxon silver pennies which no one else has ever done and the rarest of all hammy silvers. Potential hoard but will be disclaimed as not related probably. This is a serious pouch of the year contender and the double Celtic's ain't too shabby either.


Middle Bronze age 850 BC socketed bronze axe head

Saxon silver penny sent to Fitzwilliam for recording and ID - reported as hoard to museum

Dr Martin Allen has ID'd and recorded the latest Saxon silver coin find and it is our first Cnut, dates to circa 1016 AD

This is Cnut Short Cross type, London, uncertain moneyer, EMC 2014.0102

Thanks,

Martin



This is Edgar, Edward the Martyr or Æthelred II First Small Cross. I have recorded it as EMC 2014.0097.

Thanks,

Martin

2ndC Roman bronze coin sent for ID
this is a Dupondius. You can tell by the points of the radiate crown on the portrait. There obviously is very little else to see on this piece so the ID must be based on pattern-recognition and guesswork. I am pretty positive that this is Antoninus Pius - 138-161 AD.
The reverse doesn't show any details I can make out in the photo, so there's very lettle else I can tell you about it.
I don't have a really attractive Antoninus Pius Dupondius to show you, but this one isn't too bad...

This one from ACE's prize stock is a little better and shows the points of the radiate crown a little more clearly - the 2nd century was a period of relative calm and long-reigning emperors. Workhorse denominations like sestertii and dupondii remained in circulation for a long time and are more often than not encountered in well-worn conditions:
