Description: | Treasure case: 2007 T660 addenda to 2006 T619
The finds, made in October 2007, clearly represent addenda to a previous hoard recovered from the same findspot in several batches between 2001 and 2006. In terms of composition, this group of coins is identical to the earlier groups.
The Coins
All coins belong to the uninscribed North Eastern or ??Corieltavian?? series and were likely to have been produced during the second half of the first century BC. The individual types represented are:
Stater 1
Uninscribed North Eastern (Corieltavian) gold stater, ??South Ferriby?? type VA 811
Weight: 5.47g
Stater 2
Uninscribed North Eastern (Corieltavian) gold stater, ??Domino?? type VA 829-1
Weight: 5.10g
Stater 3
Uninscribed North Eastern (Corieltavian) gold stater, ??Domino?? type VA 829-1
Weight: 5.04g
VA = Van Arsdell, Celtic Coinage of Britain, London, 1989
Recommendation
Given their type, age, metal content and association with a previous hoard of coins from the same findspot, I would conclude that these coins should be regarded as a prima facie case of treasure under the terms of the Treasure Act (1996). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
