'''Colchester was the site of an archeological dig in 1963. An American dime had been found with otherwise undisturbed post-Roman artifacts.

Prime Minister Harold Macmillan held a summit with American President John F. Kennedy, and casually mentioned the dime. Macmillan did not know that Kennedy had been magiicaly transported to the historical Cam'lod'n overnight. While Kennedy had initially believed his trip to be a dream, Macmillan's revelation of the dime confirmed for Kennedy that he had not been dreaming.
