Broad period: ROMAN
County: Wrexham
Workflow stage: Published
Description of find
Six Roman silver denarii: all are to a degree encrusted or corroded.
Hadrian (117-38), 2 coins [9, 23]; Antoninus Pius (138-61, 1 coin [15]; Diva Faustina I (wife of Antoninus Pius, d,141), 1 coin [4]; uncertain (?Trajan (98-117) or Hadrian), 1 coin [24]; uncertain, probably 2nd century, 1 coin [22]. (Numbered as image, from wider group of finds)
Discussion
Roman denarii of the second century A.D. were coins of fairly fine silver, well above 50% Ag. The four that can be positively identified cover a relatively short period and are of types that circulat…

Record ID: NMGW-98C9D8
Object type: COIN HOARD
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Isle of Anglesey
Workflow stage: Published
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…

Record ID: NMGW-84C8DA
Object type: COIN
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Gwynedd
Workflow stage: Published
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.
