Two Iron Age silver staters, both uninscribed issues of the South Western Durotriges type (ABC no. 2169, BMC 2532-2550. VA 1235), probably dating to 50-20 BC. Coin 1: Diameter 20.59mm; weight 3.08mm; die axis 8 o'clock. Coin 2: Diameter 20.33mm; weight 3.32mm; die axis 2 o'clock Date: Late Iron Age - 50-20 BC. Discussion: The two coins were found in relatively close proximity to each other and on the balance of probability were probably associated at the time of deposition, but later disturbed by cultivation. The coins therefore probably represent a dispersed hoard of t…
