Broad period: ROMAN

A very worn Roman copper-alloy coin, probably a sestertius (from its weight) of Domitian (81-96). The reverse is completely worn, the obverse showing a right-facing bust. No inscription survives, and the mint is uncertain. Reece period 4 (Flavian). The obverse and reverse both exhibit round drill marks as if attempts were made to pierce the coin, although in neither case is a hole present. There are also three straight incised lines on the reverse on the coin, opposite the drill mark. These are angled in such a manner that they may intersect at the same point.  The wei…

An unusual cast copper-alloy bow brooch of either a continental or early British type. The head of bow is in the acanthus style, split head with rolled forward arms through which the hinged pin is located. The pin is of a different alloy and I suspect this has been replaced by the finder. Ridge high up on the reverse of the brooch. There maybe the start of the long catch-plate but the white substance seems odd - this needs looking at (addition / repair by the finder?). The brooch cannot be paralleled in Mackreth - the rolled forward arms are like those seen on the Hod Hill 'Durotri…

A complete cast copper-alloy possible gaming piece of Roman date. The piece is in the form of a thick oval 'cube' with ring and dot decoration arranged 5-4-6-3 on its sides. There are no motifs on the top or base of the piece. In terms of date, both Roman and Saxon gaming pieces and weights commonly use the ring-and-dot motif as a decoration feature however of the few other examples recorded a Roman date seems more appropriate. This is a very rare object and comparisons are few; on this database the only comparable examples are NARC-CA76AF and DOR-672EC3, the latter having the …
