Description: | Copper alloy 4th century Roman nummus, reused as pendant. The coin is too worn to identify any features. There are two holes drilled through the coin in order for it to be worn as a pendant. The conversion of coin into a pendant is likely to have taken place in the Anglo-Saxon, or Early Medieval period, probably sometime in the 6th century. Other examples have been found in graves of the same period.
