Summary

Description
English: The hoard contains one gold aureus of Claudius I (issued AD 41-2). It also contains 17 Iron Age gold coins (14 staters and 3 quarter stater of Cunobelin (c. AD 10-40). The remainder of the coins in the hoard are all silver denarii (the earliest dated coin in the hoard is a Republican Roman denarius issued in c. 206 to 195 BC and the latest are two denarii issued during the reign of the emperor Claudius I in AD 46-7. The group also includes a denarius issued by King Juba I in Numidia.

A total of 35 sherds of pottery (Table 1), weighing 70.65 grams, were recovered before and during the excavation of the Hoard. Almost all the sherds are likely to belong to the same vessel, which probably contained the hoard; they are fragments of a grey ware bowl or jug. Among the grey ware fragments there is an undiagnostic probably construction building material fragment.
