爷爷在搜索同一领域六年后发现罗马金币“价值50k”

据信这枚硬币是第一个被记录为不列颠群岛发现的金Vitellius皇帝的金色金银

A metal detectorist has shared how he found a coin dating back to 69 AD buried in a field near Dudley.

一位金属探测者分享了他是如何发现的一枚可追溯到69张广告的硬币，埋在达德利附近的一个田野中。

The gold Roman coin is believed to be first of its kind ever found in Britain and is set to fetch thousands at auction after being unearthed by Ron Walters, 76.

据信，黄金罗马硬币是在英国有史以来首先找到的，并将在76岁的罗恩·沃尔特斯（Ron Walters）发掘出来后将在拍卖中拍卖。

Ron, a retired welder, finally struck gold after six years of searching the same farmer's field last May.

退休的焊工罗恩（Ron）在去年五月搜寻了同一农民的田野后，终于获得了金牌。

It is believed to be the first gold aureus of emperor Aulus Vitellius to be recorded as a find in the British Isles and they can be worth as much as £50,000.

据信这是第一个将其记录为不列颠群岛发现的金Vitellius皇帝的金色金银，它们的价值高达50,000英镑。

The 1,955-year-old coin was then sent to the British Museum, disclaimed and returned to Ron who contacted auctioneers to organise its sale.

这名1,955年的硬币随后被送往大英博物馆，否认并返回了罗恩，他与拍卖者联系以组织销售。

Ron, who is from Kingswinford, will split the proceeds from the sale with the field's landowner.

来自金斯温福德的罗恩（Ron）将与该领域的土地所有者分开收益。

Ron said: "I'd been searching this field on and off for six years near Wall Heath, only in spring and autumn when the crops weren't sown.

罗恩说：“我一直在沃尔·希思（Wall Heath）附近搜寻这一领域六年，只有在春季和秋季，当庄稼没有播种时。

"I was going to go one Thursday and decided against it and it was my wife who basically told me 'bugger off and get out the house for a bit'.

“我打算去一个星期四决定反对，是我的妻子基本上告诉我'bugger掉了房子介绍了一会儿'。

"And I was glad I did. I was out for a couple of hours and I picked a signal up. I started digging a bit but then I lost the signal.

“我很高兴自己做到了。我出去了几个小时，然后捡起了一个信号。我开始挖了一点，但后来丢失了信号。

"I managed to get this reading again from a clod of earth about 2ft away from me, I broke it open and then this coin dropped into my hand.

“我设法从距离我约2英尺的地球块中再次获得了读物，我打开了它，然后把硬币掉进了手中。

"My heart was racing, I just popped it in my pocket and went straight back home.

“我的心在赛车，我只是把它弹出在口袋里，直接回到家。

"In metal detecting circles a Roman coin is probably among the best things you can find, that or Ancient English gold.

“在金属探测圈子中，罗马硬币可能是您能找到的最好的东西之一，即古老的英国黄金。

"And there's nothing like this been found in England before by all accounts. I can only imagine a soldier travelled with it, possibly via France.

“而且，以前在英格兰没有发现这样的东西。我只能想象一个可能通过法国旅行的士兵。

"It was really interesting to find something of such historical importance. I'm looking forward to seeing how it does at auction."

“找到如此历史重要性真的很有趣。我期待看到它在拍卖会上的表现。”

The coin has been given an estimate of between £5,000-£6,000 and will be sold by Fieldings Auctioneers in Stourbridge, West Mids., tomorrow (27/3).

该硬币的估算值在5,000英镑至6,000英镑之间，并将由明天（27/3）的西部斯托布里奇（Stourbridge）的菲尔德斯拍卖师出售。

However, it could fetch much more as only one similar coin has ever gone through auction and was sold last year in Switzerland for around £50,000.

但是，它可以提供更多的东西，因为只有一枚类似的硬币经过拍卖，去年在瑞士以约50,000英镑的价格出售。

Mark Hannam, senior coin specialist and auctioneer at Fieldings said the coin was "a genuinely amazing find" and "a unique piece of history."

菲尔丁斯高级硬币专家兼拍卖师马克·汉纳姆（Mark Hannam）表示，硬币是“真正令人惊叹的发现”和“独特的历史”。

He added: "To find a coin from AD69 is incredibly rare, as most coins we find in this country are from the third and fourth centuries, and we are talking about a time when the gold was at its purest level.

他补充说：“从AD69中找到一枚硬币非常罕见，因为我们在这个国家发现的大多数硬币都是来自第三和第四世纪的，我们正在谈论黄金处于最纯粹水平的时代。

"The fact that this one has escaped ploughing in the ground for over 1,900 years the coin, although still in excellent condition, is quite remarkable given its condition."

“这一事实是，鉴于其状况，该硬币虽然仍然处于良好状态，但该硬币逃脱了1,900多年的耕作。”

Vitellius was a Roman emperor who ruled for a brief eight month turbulent period in 69 AD, a year famously known as the "Year of the Four Emperors."

维特里乌斯（Vitellius）是一位罗马皇帝，在公元69年统治了短暂的八个月动荡时期，这一年被称为“四个皇帝的一年”。

He came to power after the defeat of Emperor Otho in a civil war between rival claimants to the imperial throne.

在帝国王位的竞争对手索赔人之间的内战中，奥索皇帝击败了奥索之后，他上台。

Vitellius' reign was short and marked by extravagance and poor decision-making.

维特利乌斯（Vitellius）的统治是短暂的，并以奢侈和决策不良的标志。

His government was characterized by indulgence in luxury, feasting, and an excessive lifestyle, which contrasted with the growing instability within the empire.

他的政府的特点是放纵奢侈品，盛宴和过度的生活方式，与帝国内日益增长的不稳定形成鲜明对比。

Vitellius made few efforts to restore the moral and administrative order of the state, and his rule was poorly received by many Romans.

维特里乌斯（Vitellius）几乎没有努力恢复国家的道德和行政秩序，他的统治受到许多罗马人的不良态度。
