Description: | A rolled lead-alloy copy of a Roman coin, probably intended to represent a denarius dating to the early third century (Reece period 10 and 11). Both the obverse and reverse are illegible. There are other similar and more legible examples from the same deposit. The rolling of the coin is reminiscent of much larger curse tablets and it is possible that the treatment of the coin is an intentional votive act.
