A complete cast copper alloy pouring spout in the form of a dog’s head. Medieval to Post-Medieval (c. AD 1400 – c. AD 1550).

Similar decorative spouts are illustrated in Bailey (1997, 57-59) but none of them show how they would have been attached to vessels. The spouts mainly date to the 15th century although their use may have continued into the 16th century.

A number of these types of spouts have been recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database. For example, see finds: SF-CC25D3 and IOW-0E8386

50BC Gallo Belgic Celtic gold full stater - sent to CCI for recording

17.28mm - 6.00g

I've recorded the Gallo-Belgic E as 13.0623.  It's a class 4 coin and can be dated quite precisely, probably to around 55/54 BC; it's from a known reverse die, there are several others with this characteristic die flaw below the horse's body.

Many thanks,

John

Although I can't give you my usual "chapter and verse" on this one, it is a late 3rd century antoninianus.  It most likely dates to the dark days between 260 & 275 and so is possibly Gallienus, Claudius Gothicus, Aurelian - or it might be one of the Gallic emperors, although the silhouette doesn't appear to favor the stylistic conventions of the Gallic Empire coins.  That's about all I can say on the basis of what I can see here.

This is a "restored centenionalis" - the tentative new name being used by some numismatists to refer to what has traditionally been called an "Æ3" (for lack of an actual denominational name) - of Valentinian I, 364-375.  He, along with his brother Valens, was the first emperor of the new "dynasty" - more of an extended family, really, but one whose various scions were in power (at least on-and-off) for over a century - which succeeded the Constantinian era/dynasty.  This was a terrifically important coinage and rivals the FEL TEMP REPARATIO types of the later Constantinian dynasty for overall frequency of survival.  We dont seem to see too many of them from Britain - I guess that Rome was already beginning to abandon the British Isles to their own devices and fate by this time. 

This reverse type here is Victory walking left carrying wreath and palm - symbols of (what else?) victory and celebration/rejoicing. The legend is SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE - ("To the) Security of the Republic".  So far as I can tell, the mintmark (in exergue) is *SMAQ[P] for the mint at Aquilea, which dates it to the end of the "1st period", 364-367, in which this and its equally prolific and long-lived companion-type was struck. That type is the GLORIA ROMANORVM with emperor dragging captive and carrying labarum,. The overwhelming majority of the mid-size Æ coinage of the first decade and a half of the Valentinian dynasty consisted of either of this Victory or its companion, "deeds of the emperor" type.

BC Roman republican silver coin - cooking to remove crust and sent for ID

I found a second to go looking for an ID for this one.  I was quite a bit off on my first estimated date - dating to 42 BC, it's right on the cusp of the Republican & Imperial periods.  The family is Claudia (Babelon/RSC Claudia 15).  The obverse is Apollo, head right (should be a lyre behind the head, but that would have been on the missing bit.) The reverse is Diana Lucifera standing holding two torches, with P•CLODIVS downwardly on the right, and M•F• (illegible) to the left.
