WINNER #1
My Favorite International find this month is the Caesar-Augustus coin discovered by Engiell A. from Tirana, Albania, with his classic Garrett CXIII detector. This Roman Empire Octavian coin dates between the years 27 BC–14 AD, and appears to be in very fine condition. Engiell states in his testimonial that he has “secured life with money from the materials I found.” We at Garrett are pleased to read success stories, especially from this loyal Garrett customer of more than twenty years.

Thanks to Engiell for sharing his 2,000-year-old discovery with us.

Engiell WINS a Garrett PRO-POINTER®!
Next month Vaughan will give away a Garrett PRO-POINTER®! You could be the next winner!

WINNER #1
I want to pass along my congratulations to our first winner of my International Favorite Find of the Month. He is Howard M. of Ludlow in England. Howard was using his new Garrett EuroACE metal detector when he discovered a hoard of silver coins that appears to date to the late 1500s or early 1600s. The top of the pot containing the coins was 9.5 inches (24 cm) deep. As seen in the photos, the hoard was carefully excavated by officials of the British Museum, who will evaluate the entire contents of the pot in due time.

Congrats to Howard M. for being my first winner and for recovering such a historic cache of English coins!
