I have examined 27 coins reported found in the Clitheroe area of Lancashire. All are official English silver coins, and will thus have a silver content of 92.5% fine metal – the sterling standard. A summary list of the coins follows (a more detailed catalogue is attached to this report).

Post-medieval coin hoard from Newton-with-Scales, Lancashire (2004T30)
I have examined a group of coins reported found at Newton with Scales in January 2004. The coins are all official English issues of the traditional sterling standard, i.e. 92/5% fine metal.The coins consist of three denominations: 11 groats (fourpences) of Mary and Elizabeth Tudor, and a sixpence and 7 threepences of Elizabeth, amounting to a sum with a face value of five shillings and fivepence, which would be something like £20-30 in modern terms.The coins would certainly have circulated together, and the lim…

Hoard of medieval silver coins dating between 1279 to 1283AD. The coins are hardly worn and cannot have been in circulation for very long suggesting the deposition date was not long after minting. They were all from the same findspot and therefore qualify as treasure under the provisions of the Treasure Act.
Coin 1 is a penny of Edward I class 3g or 4a, Canterbury mint The coin has been double stuck and the legends have been punched over the top of each other instead of reading +EDWRANGLDNShYB the ob reads as +GLDNNGLDNShY[B] with the letter D of DNS punched of the letter N and the…

Note on discovery: all the small finds, except one coin, were found within a lead container (no. 198 below), at a depth of about 18 inches, while five of the larger, complete arm-rings were found underneath it. The objects are described in their uncleaned condition, in accordance with the terms of the Treasure Act 1996, and some of the details are currently obscured by adhering soil. After conservation, some of the weights may be slightly lighter, although there is unlikely to be any significant difference.
Surface metal analysis of a sample of six objects from the hoard conducted a…

The group consists of three silver Roman Republican coins of a denomination known as denarii (sing. denarius).
The latest fully legible coin dates to many years before the establishment of Roman Britain. However, we know from larger coin hoard groups that Republican denarii, which had been produced over the previous two centuries, formed a substantial portion of the coin circulation throughout the first century AD. Thus these three coins cannot provide evidence on their own of Roman coins in Britain prior to the Roman annexation of AD 43.
