Title
Roman coin hoard
Description
English: Approximately 2,315 coins (plus a possible 51 addenda). This comprises 484 'radiate' coins from the period A.D. 260-96; 288 nummi of the first, second and third tetrarchies (Diocletian, Maximian, colleagues and successors, 294/5 - 307); 184 reduced-weight nummi, c.307-10; and 1,359 nummi spanning further reductions in weight after 310, the large majority in the name of Constantine I ('the Great', 306-37). The latest coins were struck at London and Arles, c.318. The hoard was buried in a jar of local South Wales grey ware, probably late third - early fourth century A.D.
