| | The text ranges far and wide to tell the stories; the photographs show several hundred images of leaden tokens and tallies from every age. They cast much needed light on a group of collectable artefacts about which little has been written until now. This book is the third in Edward Fletcher's popular Tokens & Tallies series. 780 illustrations. |

The Celts left no written records and the only historical accounts we have of them derive mainly from Roman writers. This makes archaeological finds all the more important and Celtic coins, in particular, unique as sources of information.
As little as 30 years ago many mysteries - and misconceptions - still existed as to the Celtic tribes of Britain and their kings. But thanks to metal detecting finds and the Celtic Coin Index, far more is now known.
In this book Rainer Pudill draws on his own experience as a collector - and this new knowledge - to present the latest thinking and facts on the Celts and their coins. |

Site research, it seems, is one of the more neglected aspects of our hobby. Why should one field be productive of finds year after year and yet the next field
be totally barren? The answer is past human activity, and David Villanueva shows in this book, through map and document research, how to locate such activity.

| | Successful sites, according to most metal detectorists, are those with the potential to produce large quantities of quality coins and artefacts from all periods; Bronze Age to modern.

This is the only site guide you will ever need for the author of Site Research explains clearly how to generate a host of successful detecting sites from every place in the guide, which will keep your finds bag overflowing for years to come.
And to lead you to these Sites, there is a wealth of valuable information included together with superb facsimilies of 90 highly detailed Victorian maps covering every UK county so you get a complete antique county atlas as well. |
