Friday Update: 8 December 2023
Editorial
My wife said I’d gone a bit “social media” when I said “wow” last week about the gold shilling that one of our readers had found and sent in. Well, it’s wow again as we have had another rare gold coin find sent in this week – an Angel of Edward IV.
At the other end of the spectrum in PAS Finds is a token for a billiard hall in Leeds. Little monetary value but with a lot of social history. It’s what this website is about, we love to be able to share both the rare finds and those with a story and so please keep sending your finds in. And, if you’ve found a curiosity and have done some research on it we would be more than happy to publish that.
