My Top 20: Coin No.15: Galba AD 68-69
When I first bought this coin, the dealer explained that because the edges of the coin were thin it might appear at first sight to have been a contemporary forgery. He also offered to buy it back at any time if it's provenance was questioned. Since then I have had it fully "accepted" by several experts.
Born in 1923.
Army service covered at BBC WW2 ARCHIVES
and duplicated on Ron Goldsteins Army Album.
My Album, Page by Page, is on show at Rons ACTUAL Army Album .(The original document and my illustrated memoirs are now held at the Imperial War Museum, Cat.No.20177).
