Items Discovered 1. The sword blade fragment is a short length of blade weighing 11.52 grammes; the lentoid midrib is demarcated by two grooves. Analysis of the metal indicates that it is bronze. Swords like this are known as Carp's Tongue swords because the shape of the blade tip is said to resemble the tongue of that fish. Few complete Carp's Tongue swords are known in Britain. Most specimens consist of scrap fragments imported in that form from the mainland of Europe (Sealey 19915,7 with refs). They were current in the Ewart Park phase of the late Bronze Age dated c.1020…

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…

A hoard of 134 copper alloy Roman nummi, mostly 4th century. What follows is an extract of the report written by Dr. Eleanor Ghey of the Department of Coins & Medals, British Museum. The coins are a mixed group but the majority (66 identifiable coins) are Valentinianic nummi and some later nummi dating up to AD 402. The group also included a worn sestertius of Antonine date, two radiates of Claudius II and a number of earlier nummi. The majority of coins were worn but the composition and spatial proximity of the group probably reflects that of a scattered late Roman hoard. Sum…

A hoard of 353 Roman copper alloy coins discovered in 1990 and declared as Potential Treasure Trove. The coins are believed to be nummi, and one has been identified as an AE 3/4 of Constantine II (317 - 340 AD). They were found in a ceramic vessel; a black burnished ware pot now in 20 pieces glued together. The coins do not appear to have been catalogued. The hoard was acquired by Clifton Park Museum, Rotherham on the 29th September 1990.

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…

All are official silver coins of the medieval kings of England and will therefore be of the traditional sterling standard, c. 92.5% fine metal. Three denominations are present: pennies, half-groats (twopences) and groats (fourpences). The coins range in date from the early 14th century to the early reign of Henry VI.

A forger's hoard. This record and the associated records linked to this one are for 121 coins or blanks which were found in around 1994. The finder also found a fragment of copper alloy rod, a sherd of courseware pottery and a brooch. Some coins (not included in the above total) were given to the farmer. From a study of the material it is most likely that this constitutes a forgers' hoard which consisted mainly of metal blanks, destined to be struck into coins. Given that the two identifiable coins are 'barbarous radiates' of the period c. 275-85, it is reasonable to assume that the h…

A hoard of fused silver coins, probably Medieval late 12th - 13th century. Curator's report: I have examined a fused group of coins reported found in Wandsworth, London. There are virtually no details that can be made out, but from the size of the coins and perhaps a couple of visible letters, it appears likely to me that they are late 12th or 13th century silver pennies, possibly of the Short Cross coinage (1180-1247). If this is correct, they would have a silver fineness of over 90%. The weight of the group is 21.45g, suggesting that there might be around 15 coins pres…

Early Post-Medieval lump of at least seven partially melted silver coins. Only the reverse of the uppermost coin is apparent, this appears to be an oval garnished shield of arms as found on some halfcrowns of Charles I. The small number of coins present suggests that they are most probably of a high denomination, perhaps halfcrowns, one could even be a crown. The melting down of higher value coins of Charles I suggests that the coin lump may well represent some illicit Civil War activity.

All of the present coins are Roman silver coins of a denomination known as the denarius (plural denarii). The earliest was a coin of Vespasian. The latest closely dated issue is of Marcus Aurelius with a combination of the emperor's titles for the year 172; although also present was a coin of his empress Faustina II which could have been struck anytime up until her death in 176. In terms of composition this group of coins is consistent with other hoards of this period. The coins can be summarised as follows: Summary: Emperor Quantity Vespasian, 69-79AD 1 Domitian, 81-96AD 1 T…

Felixstowe (nr), Suffolk (2009 T663) I have examined seven coins reported found near Felixstowe in Suffolk. All are official silver coins of the English kings from Edward I to Edward III, and will have a fineness of the traditional sterling standard, 92.5% fine metal. A detailed list accompanies this report. There are six pennies and one halfpenny in the group. The latest dates to the 1360s and the older coins are generally reduced to the lower weight standard introduced in 1351, so it is very likely that this is a group deposited togetheron a single occasion. Since there are no…

A Late Fourteenth Century hoard of English and French Jettons. The hoard consists of seven English and twenty four French / Tournai copper alloy jettons, two billon coins, one of Spain the other of Brittany, and three blank discs. This group of thirty six pieces (plus one other at present separated from the main group) dates from the second half of the 14th century. The loss of these pieces most probably took place within a few years on either side of 1400. The presence of three blank discs suggests that this group may well be part or whole of a working set of counters. The varying…

The Hoard consists of the following: 1) A fragment of a socketed axe SUSS-8F4D33 (found within the metal detectorists collection - it was not kept with the rest of the hoard, but is likely to be from the same find site, the detectorist is deceased). 2) Two fragments of a bronze bowl or caldron or possibly metal worki…

Furthermore, the fragment of socketed tool and hollow ring may belong to (and refit with) objects from 2010 T442.
