Description: | An Iron Age silver coin continuation of previous treasure find of three coins see SF-286851, SF-283A67 and SF-27F093.This coin was recovered in February 2006 and is an addendum to 2005 T367. It belongs to the North Eastern or 'Corieltavian' series of Iron Age coins and is likely to have been produced during the second half of the first century BC. The coin is of a recorded type (Van Arsdell VA 875-5; Hobbs BM 3209)Although the earlier three coins belonged to a different series (the East Anglian or 'Icenian') the latest coin is likely to have been part of the same hoard. Coins of the North-eastern series are known to have travelled into and circulated within East Anglia.RecommendationGiven its 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).Ian LeinsCurator of Iron Age and Roman coinsThe Department of Coins and MedalsThe British MuseumGreat Russell StreetLondon19 June 2006
