A Record of Where Roman Coins & Other Artefacts Were Found (Before The 1880s)

by C. Cardale Babington M.A., F.R.S., F.S.A, 123 pages

Ilustrated with drawings and maps.

This long forgotten out of print guide was first published in 1883, way before the advent of metal detecting. The locations of the countless coin finds described in this book may not yet have been thoroughly searched using modern methods. This is well worth a read if you've got a detector. Don't miss out! Please see list of contents and further product details below.
