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…

Two silver coins of Edward III of England (1327-77): 1. Groat, London, Series D, c.1352-3, North 1152; weight: 4.36g (67.2 grains); 2. 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.
