There are at least 91 coins, and the copper corrosion products suggest that the hoard was deposited in a bronze vessel. All of the coins are Roman silver coins of a denomination known as the denarius (plural denarii). The latest coin is a denarius of Julia Mamaea dating to AD 227 and the earliest identified coins are denarii from the reign of Vespasian (AD 69-79).

A previous find of 16 Iron Age coins was made in June and July 2008 by the same finder in the same location (2008 T412). Like the previous 16 coins, this coin is also a 'Flat Linear I' potin. While the majority of Iron Age coins were produced by striking a gold, silver or bronze blank between a pair of dies, potins were instead cast in moulds and made from a lead/tin-rich bronze alloy. Although highly abstract, it is clear that their designs copied earlier types which depicted a human head and a butting bull, originally derived from the coinage of the Greek city of Massalia (Marse…

Summary: Bronze Age hoard consisting of 191 objects including wood and cloth. The finds were found with a metal detector in the ploughsoil over an area at least 30ft. across, and the site was subsequently excavated by Andrew Rogerson. The site was ridged for asparagus immediately prior to the first discovery. During excavation, the surface was removed to reveal an almost square pit (300 x 300mm) cut into natural orange clay to a depth of 90mm. The very clearly defined edges of the cut indicate that the pit was not left open for a great length of time. The upper surface was ba…
