I can't believe it. It's amazing, all in one hole. These french coins dated from 1400-1600 aC. Just enjoy it

btw: found in south Germany

Woa....and it's really something if we pull three silver dimes from the 1800s in one hunt! Good job! HH

Nice French coins!! Someone must have buried them right before he surrendered.

That is one sweet ancient coin spill or mini-cache you found for yourself! Nothing as spectacular on this side of the Atlantic. Is there a way to find out the value of those coins for us curious Americans? Congrats on that super find and good luck with future hunts. : )

The value? All together maybe 200-250 Euro.

They were in a forest and the ground is just full of stones. No mud. Was hard to dig

Well that would make your day, especially as some certainly hit the VF to borderline UNC catagorys

well done, bit surprised at the euro price, must be a lot around
