Description: | Treasure Reference 2009 T26. Two silver coins were discovered in the same hole. One of these was extremely worn but later identified to be much later than the other coin, thus not treasure.ReportOne coin is an ancient Roman silver siliqua forgery probably made in Britain in the fourth century AD (contemporary copy of Constantius II (337-61) with mintmark of Arles). The other is a very battered modern (machine-milled) coin, possibly a silver sixpence of William III (1694-1702) although this is hard to tell although it has been heavily defaced and pierced in order to use as a pendant.
