Description: | Description of findSixteen 3rd century copper alloy radiate coins found together in the same hole, approximately 16 inches deep. The coins all dated from 260 AD - 285 AD. It is therefore likely that they were lost at the same time as a small hoard of coins. Consequently, in terms of age and as there are over 10 copper alloy coins they qualify as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.CATALOGUE1) Copper alloy radiate of Gallenius, sole reign 260-268 Mint: Rome, issue 6Obverse: Radiate bust right (GALLIENVS AVG)Reverse: Gazelle walking right DIANAE CONS AVGMint mark: Illegible, Diam: 20.29mm, DAM: 12, Wt: 2.33gCondition: FineReference: Cunetio, p121, no. 14012) Copper alloy radiate of Cladius Gothicus II, 268-270Mint: Rome, ?issue 3Obverse: Radiate head right IMP C CLAD[IVS----] Reverse: Libertas standing left holding spear and pileus LIBERT AVGMint mark: -[?] // -, Diam: 19.46mm, DAM: 12, Wt: 2.64gCondition: FineReference: Cunetio, p135, no. 20033) Copper alloy radiate of the Gallic Empire, circa 269-274Mint: GaulObverse: Radiate head right [---]Reverse: Illegible [Illegible]Mint mark: Illegible, Diam: 15.75mm DAM: ?
