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.

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.
