What do you want to bet that when she turned the rock over and saw the coins she instinctively spun her head around to see if anyone was looking.

....about 20 years ago came across a stone spear point while I was out hunting....picking it up was like a jolt of electricty going thru my arm....I haven’t stopped collecting since and totally understand why some people spend their entire lives poking around for items of antiquity.
