Treasure Act considerations Medieval English pennies were made from silver of high purity, ninety per cent fine or better. Pennies of Edward I-II are amongst the commonest medieval coins, both in hoards and as single isolated finds. However, the finding of three such coins of similar date, in similar condition and within a limited area suggests the possibility of an original association. It is the balance of probability that these coins were originally associated in the ground; as a find of two or more coins containing at least ten per cent of silver by weight and more than three hundred years old when found, these coins constitute Treasure under Section 1 (1) (a) of the Treasure Act 1996.
