Description Four silver sixpences of Elizabeth I of England (1558-1603), dated 1567, 1574 and 1583 (found by Mr Small) and 1567 (found by Mr Williams). The coins display moderate amounts of wear through use, consistent with their having been lost or deposited at around the same time. Elizabeth’s silver coinage was of a consistently high fineness, in excess of 90% Ag. Discussion Silver coins of Elizabeth are found fairly regularly and the sixpence is a commonly-encountered denomination, playing a significant part in most coin hoards from the later sixteenth and sevente…

Description of find Ninety-seven Roman coins, dating to the third century A.D.: seven denarii and ninety 'radiates' (double-denarii). A summary list is appended. There are no associated objects. Metal content The coins, in principle silver issues, span a period of debasement during which the silver content dropped from around fifty per cent Ag to issues which to all intents and purposes are of copper alloys (typical silver contents are indicated on the list of coins). Discussion The coins were found within a limited area and therefore it is more likely than not that the…

Groat, London, Series E, c.1354-5, North 1163; weight: 4.25g (65.6 gr), a small chip of metal missing. The first of the coins shows some signs of wear; the second is fairly fresh. Both are of fairly full weight. The finding of two contemporary coins of relatively high value in close proximity suggests that it is likely that they were originally associated in the ground and therefore treasure.

One hundred and five Roman coins of the third century A.D., with a date range c. 255-286. The coins have not been cleaned: for the most part they are corroded and cannot be catalogued in full detail. The coins are all of the type known today as 'radiates' (from the form of headgear of the imperial portraits). A summary list by reign can be seen below. Several other objects submitted by the finder were all found in the same general area. These have been examined by Mr Evan Chapman of AC-NMW.
