Treasure referece 2018 T367: silver possible vessel mount fragment. A curving fragment possibly from the rim of a vessel or a vessel mount of estimated rim diameter 70mm; this might be apt to decorate the mouth of a drinking horn. The rim is flat-topped, and there is an apparently internal rim along the base of the fragment, where it appears to have been neatly cut. Both ends of the object are torn, probably in the course of the translation of the object to bullion. The object has no dating evidence itself, but is from a known Early-Medieval productive site and is probably evidenc…

Silver vase or flask found to contain a Theodosian coin hoard (IARCH-E79EBA) Described as follows by Blyth 1836, 95 (quoted in Robertson 2000, 386): "It is a silver Roman ampulla, or bottle-shaped vessel, in good condition...Its weight is 8 oz. and its height 8 inches. It was found behind the plough by a labourer at Fincham, in September, 1801, and taken to Lynn, and sold as old metal to a silversmith, of whom Mr. Hankinson bought it." It is illustrated in this account; Robertson notes that "The fig. shows that the flask was pear-shaped, 8 in. high and 4 in. wide. It passed into t…

"An urn covered with a leather bag." "The leather immediately mouldered away on exposure to the atmosphere; and the silver urn, which glittered at the first disclosure to the air, assumed an earthy hue; or, as the boy himself expressed it 'all eazed [i.e. decayed] away together'. The Urn is said to have been broad like a bason with an ornamented circular edge turned downwards" According to C Johns probably a flanged bowl of a date as early as the 3rd century AD. [could also be pewter??] Leather bag

Three fragments of silver sheet, presumably from the same larger object, possibly a vessel. Each sheet is decorated in repoussé with animal scenes. The first features a four-legged bovine-like creature pursued by another animal with a wide open mouth and protruding tongue. The second features two birds with long, straight tail-feathers posed face-to-face and the third sheet has at least one non-descript animal. All of the creatures are surrounded with foliate decoration. The stippled backgrounds appear to be made with small punches directly onto the surface. The sheets were exa…
