Circumstances of Discovery In October 2006, twenty seven Iron Age coins were discovered. Two early groups of coins (2003T7 and 2005T18) were found at the same spot in 2002 and 2004 respectively, suggesting that the present coins should be considered as addenda to these earlier finds. The Coins One of the coins is an uninscribed gold 'stater'; the others are smaller uninscribed gold 'quarter staters'. All were produced towards the end of the first century BC. As none have inscriptions they cannot be directly associated with an historical attested ruler. Their style of these co…

In total there are 495 whole coins and fragments of coins. They all belong to the same type, the so-called flat linear cast bronze unit or Flat linear 'potin' series of coins which were made and circulated in Kent and along the lower Thames valley in the early first century BC.
