CURATOR'S REPORT
A hoard of 4 Iron Age staters and 1 Roman denarius (of Vespasian?).
Four of the five coins delivered to the British Museum in November 2007 are Iron Age coins. These appear to represent addenda to another hoard (2006 T494) found at the same site.
Several other groups of coins have been found in the same field and those adjacent to it (see 2006 T148 and 2002 T92; 2003 T401; 2004 T468; 2006 T26; 2007 T48; 2007 T597). The fifth coin referred to above is probably related to the Roman hoard and is considered separately (see 2008 T153).

TREASURE CASE : 2006 T494
Two uninscribed gold 'staters' produced during the late Iron Age. The style and design of the coins identifies them as locally-produced types that are traditionally associated with the Corieltavi, a people thought to have inhabited an area equivalent to modern North East Midlands, Humberside and parts of Yorkshire. Both coins would have been struck during the mid/late first century BC. The coins can be described as follows: 1. Gold stater, 'Domino' type; cf. VA 829-4 / ABC 1758 Although the published example of this type of coin (VA 829-4) is described …

All four are Iron Age gold quarter staters produced during the century before the Romans invaded southern Britain in AD 43. The earliest (no. 1 below) is an early uninscribed coin of the so-called "Double Torc" type, struck in Kent in about 50-20 BC. Two coins (nos. 2-3) were produced by Eppillus, who is known to have issued coins in Kent and Hampshire in about 10 BC- AD 10. The latest (no. 4) is a coin of Cunobelin struck in about AD 10-40. Although this coin was probably made in the Hertfordshire Essex area, coins of this type are commonly found in Kent.

Iron Age coin hoard consisting of two gold staters. Both are Norfolk wolf staters, so-called JB types with a left facing wolf (Cottam et al 2010, Ancient British Coinage, p.78, no.1399). The two coins were found approximately 40 yards apart and they must represent part of a dispersed coin hoard.
The larger, paler example weighs 5.14g, the smaller, darker coin 5.27g.
The coins were made between about 50-20 BC. Date of loss of deposition will have been in the closing decades of the first century BC, c.30-10BC

Hoard of twenty-four Late Iron Age coins, twenty staters and four silver units. The coins were found scattered over a small area; they comprise a mixture of Gallo-Belgic staters, early Norfolk wolf staters of high-purity gold and Bury type silver units. These last two coin types are the earliest of Icenian coins, probably produced in the third quarter of the first century BC and a few years either side of it. We might postulate a date of deposition c.30-0BC
