1st coin is a silver denarius of the emperor Tiberius - this coin is known as the tribute penny as it was the the same coin Judas was given to betray Jesus ( 30 pieces of silver) I found it in Lincolnshire 2nd coin is a silver sixpence of James I of England - early 17th Century - I found it in Norfolk 3rd coin is a Henry VI silver groat (4pence) this 15th century coin was minted in Calais when the English still held this part of France. I found it in Norfolk first artefact is a lunar type roman brooch from the 1st to 2nd century AD I found this in Gloucestershire. 2nd artefact is an anglo saxon brooch circa 500 AD - I found this in Notts. The anglo Saxons had been converted to Christianity by this time and stylised cruciform brooches like this are typical of the time.
