I see that in the mirror every morning,

I have a few coins around 2000 years old and a Silver one from 1247 AD and a couple of younger ones but no gold Coins as of yet.
I had my good ones stolen, But I will find more one day.

I have some Roman or Viking Norfolk ( england ) coins but I didn't find em :8 and don't know much about them either. They stay in the safe

I hate thievery. I had at least $400 of copper and $300 of tools stollen from my place this year, *******s not only took my hard worked for copper, but also ran off with my welding leads..I mean c'mon...

I'm worried now too, if there done it once they will be tempted again. Time to setup that pressure plate sensor on the driveway I keep thinking of

The Best part of finding these things is when you realize that the last time someone touched them was 2000 years ago, That is a shock and Awe Moment.

Absolutely, just like any find. Some are from man thousands of years ago or some are from time, billions of years ago. Were lucky to be so unique in many ways and to be a part of it all
