Amazing what you can find!

Carboot finds! Coins and a medal spanning history from the Egyptian Ptolemies to Byzantium through to the French Empire! (Nothing cost more than £20!)

The most valuable is probably the George 111 'cartwheel' penny, but (to me!) the most interesting is the triobol of one of the Ptolemies. This was the Greek dynasty that ruled Egypt, culminating in the reign of Cleopatra...
