And 1,650—year—old coins spilled out! It happened in 1895, when a workman swinging his pick shattered a clay vessel, spilling thousands of Roman Bronze Nummus coins struck between 307 and 361 A.D. Scholars concluded that they were the treasury of a Roman Legion, used to buy the food for the stomachs the army travelled on! The coins remained in the owner's estate for 115 years, but have now been released to collectors. The quality is phenomenal! Each coin is authenticated and graded by Numismatic Guarantee Corporation (NGC). Hurry before they're gone! Date, design and grade vary.
