Freddy Woo writes, "My non-prostitute-killing, lorry driving uncle once came home with a wedding cake. Found it in a layby, scoffed the lot over several weeks."
What's the best thing you've found?

Not really
I reckon the Ancient British one may be worth £200 or so, the others, no more than £30 each.

You may be able to identify that coin
Based on the tribes that inhabited the area before the Roman invasion in AD43. Given that the idea of coinage was copied from the Romans, it'll only be comparatively recent in terms of the period of the iron age it comes from.

When I found it the tribe was "uncertain" but now apparently the tribe is Trinovantes.
