Friday Update – 22 October 2021

Editorial

It had the makings of a quiet week with no detecting news to report and no finds of particular interest reported to PAS. However, thanks to the readers of this website it was a bumper week for readers’ finds, with 14 coming in. Can you help shed any light on one find – a badge that simply reads “FOLK” ?

Valuations and Identifications

In this week’s edition there are 14 new Reader’s finds including my Find of the Week and Runner Up.

Find of the Week

Gold Unite of Charles I

I was told that it was found during 2019, which was a lucky period for the finder as this was his third gold item for that year.

Runner Up

Denarius of Septimius Severus

It’s a Roman denarius and not many come in better condition than this one.

Other finds

Henry VI groats

This is one of two Henry VI groats, which are being reported as a possible Treasure find

FOLK badge

Can you help identify this badge?
