A thin, incomplete, unidentified silver component. The item is semi-circular in plan, and retangular in cross section. It appears to be incomplete, with clean and linear break points on the two ends of the circular frame suggesting it has been cut, perhaps before it was intended to be melted down. On what is presumably the front facing surface of the component, there are two parrallel grooves which run along the circumference of the inside edge.

Object type: COIN
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Shropshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A heavily eroded and corroded silver coin like disc of uncertain date - the find is thicker than a milled coin and looks as if it has been struck rather than milled. It is also thicker than conventional medieval and post medieval struck / hammered coins (based on its relevant size). Therefore, it is possibly a debased Roman coin of some sort. It has been found close to an area of Roman denarii Diameter: 17.5mm Thickness 1.0mm Weight 1.16 grams

A small silver disc - possibly a coin blank of uncertain date. Although without parallel the disc is recorded due to its findspot. One side is domed whilst the other is very slightly dished. Both sides are marked, but no discernible pattern is present. The finder has commented on the similarity between this and small silver units from the late Iron Age. Such a find would fit well within the landscape in which it was found. The disc measures 8.6mm diameter, is 2.8mm thick and weighs 0.9 grams
