Metal Detectorist Finds Rare 2,000-Year-Old Celtic Coin

A metal detectorist says he did a “jig of joy” after turning up an “exceptionally rare” 2,000-year-old Celtic coin worth thousands of pounds.

Grandfather Mike Taylor couldn’t contain his excitement after finding the rose gold stater while searching farmland in Bishton, near Gwent, South Wales.

fter getting an “iffy” signal from his detector, he dug down four inches before uncovering the coin, struck during the reign of Antedios, an Iceni ruler, from 20-47AD.

The incredibly detailed coin, thought to be worth £4,000, depicts a triple-tailed horse alongside a cross, crescent, six-spoked wheel and pellets.

It bears the tree emblem of the Dobunni, an Iron Age tribe living in Britain prior to the Roman conquest.

The name of Antedios is inscribed in full with a Greek letter, which is unusual as abbreviations were more common.

A Timeline Auctions spokesman said: “This variant is rare because it features the complete name of the ruler, unlike most coins where part of the name is missing.

“Additionally, the ruler’s name is inscribed with the Greek letter Θ, whereas it is usually written with the letter ‘D’. It is a well-centred example with sharp details.

“Only one other example with this lettering is recorded, and our example also includes three extra pellets behind the tail. This makes it an exceptionally rare and beautiful coin in lustrous rose gold.”

Antedios remained neutral during the Roman invasion of 43AD and was made a client of Rome.

On the theme of Celtic coins, this seems like an amazing resource!

We reached our second stretch goal for the Illuminated Beowulf Project on Kickstarter and now we'll be able to include a custom and enameled challenge coin with every pledge at the Thane level and above! I just got the prototype today, and it is really awesome. A full 2 inches across, it features a cloisonné style enamel pattern based on Anglo-Saxon brooch and bracteate decoration from real treasure hoards, as well as engraved knotwork on the back with the inscription: "Gaeth a wyrd swa hio scel" - "Fate goes ever as it must", taken from the Beowulf text.

Gold robbery - Celtic coins lost forever

And once again, an incredibly valuable find is lost for ever. This time, the Roman museum in Manching, Germany, was hit in the night of Tuesday. 483 gold coins from the Celtic period were stolen. The coins are worth the equivalent of 1.6 million.

I can't eat as much as I want to throw up, these spineless pigs... sory but something like this makes me infinitely angry.

German Police Arrest Suspects in Theft of 483 Celtic Gold Coins from Museum

The men were found in possession of gold bars, likely made by melting down the stolen coins.

Gold bars made from melted-down ancient Celtic coins that were stolen in a museum heist have been found by police in Germany. Four suspects have been arrested.

Thieves stole 483 coins from the Celtic Roman Museum in Manching after midnight on November 22, 2022. They severed several fiber optic cables, which caused internet and telephone connections in 13,000 households to go down for several hours. About an hour later, the museum was broken into and the suspects pried open two locked doors to make off with the gold coins.

The prosecutor’s office in Ingolstadt and the art investigators of the Bavarian State Criminal Police Office took over the investigations and recovered two blue crowbars, pruning shears, and a side cutter in the nearby area.

Police found a trace of DNA on the recovered items and conducted search in a nationwide DNA database and in neighboring countries, which alerted investigators to a string of eight similar thefts in Germany and Austria since 2014.

“The perpetrators were always equipped in the same way during the burglaries,” police said in a statement translated from German. “They wore black overalls with balaclavas and each had identical crowbars, screwdrivers and an angle grinder with several cutting discs.”

By examining the crime spree incidents together, investigators were able to identify the first suspect, a 42-year-old man from Schwerin, believed to have been involved in an April 2018 burglary. Through him, police identified a second suspect described as a 46-year-old German man.

Investigators eventually discovered two more suspects, a 50-year-old man from Schwerin and a 43-year-old man from Berlin, police said. The four men were arrested Tuesday and brought before investigating judges on Wednesday.

Police said the 43-year-old man from Berlin was carrying 18 gold nuggets in a plastic bag when he was arrested. Forensic analysts identified the material composition as having levels of gold, silver, and copper that corresponded to the composition of the stolen coins.

Prosecutors have charged the men with aggravated gang theft in combination with damaging property and disrupting telecommunications systems.

The museum praised the “significant success” of the investigation in a brief statement on Facebook.

(Wonderful news that there has been arrests in this case but very sad that some, if not all of the coins have been destroyed)

Buried Treasure in 2023

What kind of buried treasure is left in 2023? This kind...

About 2100 years ago a cache of nearly 500 Celtic gold coins were minted and stowed. In 1999 the treasure was uncovered, then acquired by the Keltenmuseum in Germany. The coins’ value amounted to several million euros (adjusted for inflation). After a peaceful existence, under the soft museum lights, the coins were burgled in 2022. In July of 2023, four culprits were arrested. Of the 483…

[irreplaceable-spark]

The suspects who authorities believe stole 483 Celtic gold coins from the Kelten Römer Museum in Manching, Germany, last November have been arrested in Bavaria, according to a report from the Art Newspaper.

When they were discovered in Manching in 1999, the coins were considered the most substantial discovery of Celtic gold made during the 20th century. While the material value of the coins amounts to around €250,000, the coins are an irreplaceable cultural treasure, according to the Bavarian minister of art, Markus Blume.

The four men suspected in the heist were northern Germany and found after a search of 28 home, businesses, vehicles, and a boathouse, according to the Bavarian police. According to the Art Newspaper, one of the suspects was found in possession of a plastic bag filled with “lumps of gold” that match the composition of the stolen Celtic coins, suggesting some of the coins had already been melted down.
