COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN
ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498
THE BRITISH NUMISMATIC SOCIETY
SPECIAL PUBLICATIONS SERIES

This Special Publication series was established in 1991, funded by a generous bequest of Roy Osborne
(1913−1990). The purpose of the series is to support the publication of monographs that it would
not normally be feasible to include within the ambit of the British Numismatic Journal.

This work, edited by Dr Martin Allen, is based on the Presidential addresses delivered by Dr Roger
Bland during his tenure as President of the Society between 2011 and 2016. It also contains a com-
prehensive checklist of Iron Age and Roman coin hoards which enhances the original narrative and
analysis. Its publication has been greatly assisted by a grant from the Arts and Humanities Research
Council.

FOREWORD

This book is derived from the author’s five Presidential Addresses to the British Numismatic Society,
given between 2012 and 2016 and published in the British Numismatic Journal. Two new chapters have
been added: an overview of the study of Roman coin finds in Britain (chapter 1) and a discussion of
hoards of nummi of the fourth century (chapter 6); all the other chapters have been brought up to date.
The volume also contains a checklist of all hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins (down to the early
Byzantine period) from England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the Channel Islands, reported to the
end of 2015. This is based on the work of Eleanor Ghey, Research Assistant in the Hoards project,
and it will provide a sound basis for all future studies of Iron Age and Roman hoards from Britain.
My aim has been to present an account of Roman coin hoards from the end of the Iron Age period
to the fifth century ad and my focus is on coin hoards as hoards. I have not attempted to give a
comprehensive discussion of Iron Age coin hoards, not least because this has been done recently
by Philip de Jersey in his magisterial Coin Hoards in Iron Age Britain, also published by the British
Numismatic Society. However, the checklist does include all Iron Age coin hoards and in chapter 3
I discuss hoards that combine Iron Age and Roman coins.
In 2011 a conference at the British Museum on hoarding and the deposition of metalwork
(published as Naylor and Bland 2015) provided the stimulation for a major research project, ‘Crisis
or continuity? Hoards and hoarding in Iron Age and Roman Britain’, that was in progress. This
was funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council as a collaboration between the British
Museum and the University of Leicester. Its principal aim has been to understand better why so
many coin hoards were buried in Roman Britain, especially in the third century, and it has had a
focus on the investigation of findspots of hoards. A monograph, Iron Age and Roman Coin Hoards
in Britain, by Roger Bland, Adrian Chadwick, Eleanor Ghey, Colin Haselgrove, David Mattingly,
Adam Rogers and Jeremy Taylor with Stewart Bryant, Nicky Garland, Sam Moorhead and Katherine

CHAPTER 1

THE STUDY OF ROMAN COIN FINDS IN


BRITAIN

1.1. The growth of antiquarianism: the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries

Britain was a backwater in the early study of ancient numismatics when compared with countries
such as France, the Low Countries and Italy, where the first books on coins were published in the
early sixteenth century.1 No works of any significance on ancient coinage were published in this
country until the 18th century.
But in one respect British scholars were in advance of their Continental counterparts and that was
in the study and recording of coin finds. The earliest record of the discovery of a coin hoard in the
corpus is taken from a coroner’s inquisition recording a pot of gold and silver coins found at St
Mary Cray in Kent in 1435 (no. 3264), but no details of the coins are available, and that can hardly
count as evidence of antiquarian interests: the sole purpose of the coroner’s inquest was to seize a
valuable find for the King.2
Henry VIII’s antiquarian John Leland (c.1503–52) did note details of seven hoards in the itineraries
he compiled while travelling around England in search of important manuscripts belonging to the
recently-dissolved religious houses between 1535 and 1543.3 The details he provides on these show
the beginnings of scholarly interest – for example, he recorded a find from Kingston on Thames
of Roman gold and silver coins and ‘masses to bete into plates to coyne, and (chay)nes of sylver’,
which, as Anne Robertson noted, looks like a hoard of late Roman solidi and siliquae with ingots
and jewellery.4
Leland was in many respects ahead of his time, but his primary interest lay in manuscripts. William
Camden (1551–1623), the first edition of whose Britannia was published in 1586, is generally
regarded as the founder of the antiquarian study of Britain.5 This work, successively expanded
over the following 150 years by a series of editors,6 gave birth to the great tradition of the writing
of county histories and of studying and publishing significant new finds. Finds of coins, espe-
cially Roman coins, featured prominently among the discoveries that these learned gentlemen, all
reared on the classics, liked to discuss – and collect; and early 18th century antiquarians such as
Edmund Gibson (1669–1748), Bishop of London,7 Roger Gale (1672–1744)8 and his brother Samuel
(1682–1754),9 John Horsley (1685/6–1732),10 William Stukeley (1687–1765)11 and Maurice Johnson

(1688–1755)12 all corresponded with each other on new finds. Younger antiquarians included
Richard Gough (1735–1809)13, who also translated and expanded Camden’s work.
The prestigious Society of Antiquaries, founded in 1707 by Maurice Johnson and others, was to
act as an important means of exchanging information about new discoveries, many of which were
recorded in the minute books of its meetings or in its periodical Archaeologia,14 while the Gentleman’s
Magazine, first published in 1731, also served as a vehicle for reports of new finds.
Perhaps one of the most fascinating works on this subject from this time is a small book by John
Poynter, Chaplain of Merton College, Oxford published in 1724.15 Its title is Britannia Romana, or
Roman Antiquities in Britain, viz. Coins, Camps and Publick Roads and it is an ambitious attempt to
publish an inventory of Roman coin hoards from Britain – together with an account of Roman
camps and roads. Its scope does not match its ambitions, as it is only 60 pages long, and its impor-
tance lies less in its contents – although Poynter does present a county by county inventory of coin
hoards known to him – than in its author’s approach. In his introduction Poynter discusses the
reasons for the burial of coin hoards in Britain. He writes in his Preface:

If it should be ask’d, What should be the Reason of burying so much Roman Coin here in Britain? I answer, I
am not of Dr Leigh’s opinion who (in his Nat. Hist.) tells us that the Romans buried their Money rather than
that it should come into the Enemy’s Hands. For (alas) of what Service cou’d a Pot or two of Copper Coins be
to a whole Country? The intrinsick Value of one of those Pots of Coins, cou’d not amount to above 20, or 30
or 40s at most. But they seldom left their Silver behind ‘em, and when they did, they were but a few Denarii
in an Urn. And they knew better things than to leave their Gold behind ‘em. And as for another Opinion,
That They hid their Money on Prospect of a Return; the same Answer may serve. I rather think that they
buried such Quantities of Money in several Places, as so many incontestable Memorials of the once Roman
Greatness, and undeniable Testimonies of the large Extent of their prevailing Conquests.

We might modify some of these statements in the light of subsequent knowledge, but here we see
an early eighteenth-century clergyman, whose other main publication was A Rational Account of
the Weather, grappling with concepts that still exercise us today: and interestingly he seems to be
suggesting that hoards might have been buried for what we would now call ritual purposes rather
than with the intention of recovery.
The nineteenth century saw a great quickening in the pace of building work and consequently of
new discoveries and the study and publication of these finds continued to occupy the interests of
antiquarians. One of the leading experts was James Yonge Akerman (1806–70), first secretary of the
Numismatic Society of London (now the Royal Numismatic Society) and its journal the Numismatic
Chronicle which henceforth served as a major vehicle for the publication of new finds. In 1844 he
published Coins of the Romans Relating to Britain, but this is a listing of coins which contain refer-
ences to Britain rather than a discussion of finds.16 Perhaps the greatest antiquarian of the age was
the London chemist, Charles Roach Smith (1806–90),17 who devoted his energies to trying to save
and record the large numbers of new finds that were coming to light in London and Kent, starting
with the large quantities of coins and other artefacts that were discovered by the workmen demol-
ishing the old London Bridge in 1834–41, including this aureus struck by Carausius in the name of
Maximian now in the British Museum (fig. 1.1).18

Smith from the new London Bridge (British Museum)

Although the application of the law Treasure Trove to newly-discovered coin hoards could be fairly
hit and miss in the nineteenth century, the study of newly-discovered hoards became an accepted
part of the responsibilities of the staff of the Department of Coins and Medals, created in 1860.19
Curators such as Barclay Head, Herbert Gruber and George Hill all published important accounts of
hoards at this time. But there was no systematic attempt to study other discoveries of Roman coins
(John Evans’s seminal work on Iron Age coinage was published in 186420), although the local anti-
quarian tradition was still strong and this was aided by the establishment of a network of county
archaeological societies during the nineteenth century.

1.2. The twentieth century

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, perhaps the most important development
in the study of coin finds was the increasing number of large area excavations of Roman sites
from the 1890s down to the Second World War – for example at Silchester, Wroxeter, Caerwent,
Richborough and Hadrian’s Wall. Richborough was excavated from 1922 to 1938 under the aus-
pices of the Society of Antiquaries with the involvement of the Ministry of Works which, since
the Ancient Monuments Act of 1882 was acquiring increasing responsibility for the protection
and investigation of archaeological sites. All of these excavations produced large numbers of coin
finds, and none more so Richborough from which site over 52,000 coins have been published.21
Responsibility for studying and publishing archaeological finds passed from the staff of the British
Museum to others, such as Bertram Fox or Brian O’Neil, who started to be funded by the Ministry
for Works (now English Heritage) to do this work.
Discussions of why hoards were buried are rare before the 20th century. Blanchet’s study of 1900 was
groundbreaking in that he argued that by studying clusters of hoards of the same period one could
trace external invasions or internal unrest (see chapter 5).22 This way of looking at hoards, particu-
larly those of the second half of the third century, has been extremely influential in Continental
studies and still is,23 however, as long ago as 1932 it was questioned by Harold Mattingly (chapter
5). Harold Mattingly, curator of Roman coins at the British Museum from 1910 to 1947, did publish
hoards and wrote two important papers in which he attempted to draw patterns from them, but
most of his energies were concentrated on the cataloguing the British Museum’s collection and on
the series Roman Imperial Coinage which he initiated.24
There were few attempts to produce a synthesis of the study of coin finds in the first half of
the 20th century, although in 1932 Mattingly had flagged it up as something that needed to be
done.25 One exception was Mattingly’s opposite number at the Ashmolean Museum, Humphrey
Sutherland who, in 1937, published Coinage and Currency in Roman Britain.26 This book has been
rather neglected by students of coin finds from Britain but it marked the first systematic attempt

to discuss the significance of both hoards and single finds of coins in Britain. It contains important
discussions of contemporary copies, especially Claudian copies, and also the first attempt to present
a list of Roman coin hoards since Poynter’s of 1725. However, it was written a generation before
Reece and Casey developed the technique of the comparative analysis of coin assemblages and so
seems dated now and Sutherland had little to say on the possible reasons for the reasons behind
patterns of hoarding.

1.3. The last fifty years

The main characteristic of the post-war period, and above all the last 40 years, has been a huge
growth in studies of coin finds. mirroring the explosion in the numbers of finds being made, both
from the increase in archaeological excavations since PPG 16 in 1990 and from metal detecting
(see p. 9). In consequence there was a growing demand for numismatists to write coin reports on
excavation assemblages and in the 1970s two scholars above all rose to this challenge: John Casey
in Durham and Richard Reece at the Institute of Archaeology in London. Both recorded large num-
bers of assemblages, John Casey specialising in the North of England and especially the sites along
Hadrian’s Wall,27 while Richard Reece studied site finds from across much of the rest of England.
Reece developed a technique that enabled comparisons to be made across sites.28 Dividing the
Roman occupation into 21 periods from Augustus to ad 402, he was able to produce a simple chart
comparing the proportion of coins from each period and he noted that urban, military, rural and
religious sites all had their own distinctive profiles of coin finds, an observation which has proved
to be influential. By aggregating data from a range of sites – at first 21, later expanded to 14029 – he
was able to produce a chart that represented the British mean, or average (fig. 1.2).

THE STUDY OF ROMAN COIN FINDS IN BRITAIN 5

Since devising this very simple model Reece developed ever more sophisticated statistical techniques
for analysing site groups within Britain and also enabling British finds to be compared with
assemblages from other provinces. His work has been hugely important – he has been able to show
how British circulation patterns compare closely to sites from northern Gaul but are very different
from Mediterranean provinces, and he has also demonstrated that one can distinguish between
assemblages between typical urban, military, rural and temple sites from their coin distributions.30
In 1974 Reece and Casey organised a symposium on ‘Coins and the Archaeologist’ which was
published by British Archaeological Reports, with a new edition in 1988.31 This has proved to be a
seminal volume and many of the papers in it, such as George Boon’s study of copies of coins found
in Britain, have proved to be key texts.32 In the same year (1988) David Walker’s publication of the
12,613 Roman coins discovered in the Roman baths at Bath was a very important discussion of this
important assemblage.33
In 2000 the Royal Numismatic Society published posthumously Anne S. Robertson’s Inventory of
Romano-British Coin Hoards, which contained details of all hoards of Roman coins from Britain up
to 1992. This was her life-time’s work. Since that publication there have been annual summaries
of new hoards: from 1996 to 2011 in the Numismatic Chronicle and, since 2012, in the British
Numismatic Journal. Full catalogues of the hoards have been published in the series Coin Hoards
from Roman Britain (CHRB), thirteen of which have been published so far.34 The checklist in this vol-
ume contains references to every Iron Age and Roman coin hoard reported up to the end of 2015;
summaries of new finds will be published in the ‘Coin Hoards’ section of the British Numismatic
Journal.
While the British Museum has long had a responsibility to study and publish coin hoards, particularly
those that fell under the law Treasure Trove and, since 1997, under the Treasure Act, there was no
systematic attempt to record single finds of Roman coins.35 Coins from archaeological excavations
were the responsibility of those leading the excavations, but the advent of metal detecting in the
1970s resulted in the discovery of very large numbers of Roman coins and no organisation had the
responsibility of recording them. In two counties, Norfolk and Suffolk, the archaeologists employed
by the county councils did attempt to make a systematic record of detector finds, but they were
the exception. The establishment of the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS), first as pilot schemes in
1997 and then nationally across England and Wales from 2002, has led to the creation of a large –
and rapidly growing – national database of coin finds which has revolutionised research.36 We also
have four pioneering volumes by David Shotter listing all finds of Roman coins from the north-
west37 and one by Penhallurick on Cornwall.38 Bland and Loriot have catalogued all single finds and
hoards of Roman gold coins from Britain and Ireland.
As important as their published work was the fact that Reece and Casey have produced a whole
generation of students, many of whom have continued to careers in the field – for example, Andrew

In contrast to Iron Age and Early Medieval coins, for which there have been two projects (at Oxford and Cambridge
respectively) aimed at systematically recording all new single finds of coins of those series: the Celtic Coin index

36
As of 1 August 2017 there are 254,367 Roman coins on the PAS database; in October 2009 there were 86,219 coins

Meanwhile the PAS database was investigated by Philippa Walton in Rethinking Roman Britain:
Coinage and Archaeology.47 She was able to show how the prolific number of Roman coins recorded
by PAS has complemented and altered our perception of Roman coin circulations derived from the
study of archaeological assemblages. Perhaps the most important contribution made by the prolific
finds of Roman coins recorded by PAS is in revealing new sites – above all rural settlements, as it
is these that produce the vast majority of finds.48 Thus the PAS data helpfully complements that
which is coming from excavations, as can be seen from pl. 1.
Sam Moorhead has recently provided a connected account of the coinage of Roman Britain which
draws on PAS data, written for a general audience,49 while Richard Abdy and Eleanor Ghey, who
currently have responsibility for studying Roman coin hoards at the British Museum, have both
written popular books on hoards from Roman Britain.50

1.4. Coin finds from Wales, Scotland and Ireland

Coin finds from Wales and Scotland are published more fully than the English finds, thanks to the
smaller size of those countries and the greater scarcity of finds of Roman coins. Scholars in both
those countries have attempted to publish records of all new discoveries. In Wales, the staff of the
National Museum of Wales publish regular reports on new finds. In 2007 Peter Guest’s project to
catalogue all finds of Roman coins from Wales was published in summary form in a book, but, more
importantly the full data is available via the adS and has been incorporated into the PAS database:
it comprises records of 52,813 coins from all available sources, both hoards and single finds.51
In Scotland, where discoveries of Roman coins are much rarer, Sir George Macdonald (1862–1940)
published a pioneering inventory of Roman coin finds from Scotland in the Proceedings of the
Society of Antiquaries of Scotland in 1917–18. Sir George and his successors as Keepers of Coins at
the Hunterian Museum in Glasgow, Anne S Robertson (1910–97) and Donal Bateson, together with
Nick Holmes of the National Museum of Scotland, have continued to publish accounts of all new
discoveries of Roman coins from Scotland at roughly ten-yearly intervals in the PSAS: a total of
twelve papers have now been published (Roman coins found in Scotland 1–12). We thus have a very
full record of all Roman coins found in Scotland, although the coins published in these papers
badly need to be recorded on a database so that they can be available for statistical analysis. Finally,
Roman material from Ireland was the subject of a corpus by Donal Bateson.52

CHAPTER 2

HOARDING IN BRITAIN: AN OVERVIEW

2.1. Definitions: what is a hoard?

In 1975 Philip Grierson divided coin hoards into four categories: accidental losses, ‘emergency’
hoards, ‘savings’ hoards and abandoned hoards.1 Under ‘accidental losses’ Grierson included purses
or small bags of coins lost by accident; ‘emergency’ hoards comprise groups of coins taken from
circulation on a single occasion and buried in an emergency, with the intention of subsequent
recovery, while ‘savings’ hoards comprise coins taken from currency over a period of time, and also
deliberately buried or concealed by their owners with the intention of recovery. Lastly, Grierson
defined ‘abandoned’ hoards as those whose owners disposed of their coins with no intention of
retrieving them and he gave as examples coins associated with burials, foundation deposits in build-
ings and groups of coins thrown into wells or fountains. This classification, itself a development
of earlier accounts,2 has proved very influential in subsequent literature.3 The distinction between
‘savings’ and ‘emergency’ hoards is now generally regarded as not very useful.4 In practice hoards
do not fall into neat categories and any attempt to do this is likely to conceal the fact that the
contents of hoards will have been put together in a wide range of different ways. Both ‘emergency’
and ‘savings’ hoards are likely to have been concealed for the same reasons: because their owners
felt threatened and buried their wealth in the ground with the intention of subsequent recovery.
Traditionally, therefore, students of coin hoards of the Roman period onwards have generally seen
them as having been buried for safekeeping, although Hobbs notes that the ‘threat and response’
interpretation does not apply to all episodes of hoarding and he makes a comparison between
Britain and Italy at the end of the 4th century and the early years of the fifth century ad.5 Large
numbers of hoards are known from Britain at this period, which is the very period when Britain was
abandoned as a Roman province6 and Hobbs notes that ‘it is probably fair to say that we can equate
many late Romano-British precious metal hoards with the “formal demise of the province”’.7 By
contrast, relatively few hoards are known from Italy at this period, even though Alaric’s invasion
of 401 was to lead to the sack of Rome in 410 and Hobbs notes that there are no more hoards from
Italy in the period ad 395–410 than for the rest of the fifth century.8 Instead he argues that hoarding
is a reflection of social behaviour and he suggests that in some regions (he cites East Anglia and
the Urals), ‘the populations … just liked to bury precious metals’.9 Aitchison and Guest had already
suggested that we need to look beyond the traditional ‘threat and response’ model in understand-
ing hoarding in the Roman period:10 see also Bradley’s and Haselgrove’s discussions of prehistoric
hoards11 and the discussion of the Frome hoard below.
By contrast when prehistorians nowadays discuss hoarding and the deposition of valuable objects
they generally assume that objects are deposited for votive reasons, but this has not always been

so.12 Such an explanation is very rarely applied to medieval or post-medieval hoards, as votive
deposition has not traditionally been thought to fit into the Christian tradition, but that view is
now increasingly being been challenged.13 This makes the Iron Age/Roman transition a key period
for study in any discussion of why hoards were buried in Britain.14
In his discussion of early medieval coin finds, Blackburn proposes another method of classi-
fying hoards, by analysing how the elements in the hoards were put together, rather than the
circumstances of their burial.15 He notes that many hoards had complicated histories and that a
single hoard could contain several distinct elements, citing as an example a hoard of coins found
in Cambridge which contained 1,805 pennies of the period 1279–1351, no doubt drawn from
circulation over a period of time, with the addition of nine gold coins which were added in the
1350s.16 This is an important insight.

2.2. Treasure Trove and the Treasure Act 1996


In Britain for a long time discussion of hoarding was complicated by the common law of Treasure
Trove, under the terms of which only those hoards that had been buried by their owners with the
intention of later recovery qualified as Treasure Trove and so became crown property.17 Suggestions
that finds such as the hoard of several thousand Iron Age coins looted by metal detector users from
the site of a Romano-Celtic temple at Wanborough, Surrey, in 1985 could have been buried for
votive reasons became difficult because they had the effect of placing such finds outside the protec-
tion of the law.18 When it was suggested that the Hoxne late Roman treasure of 580 gold and 14,654
silver coins and some 200 items of gold and silver plate and jewellery could have been buried for
votive reasons and thus not Treasure Trove, curators at the British Museum, the present writer
included, reacted with alarm.19 This difficulty was removed by the passage of the 1996 Treasure Act
which replaced the old subjective criteria for Treasure Trove with a new, objective, definition of
Treasure20 which specified that finds from votive contexts would qualify as Treasure.21

12
See Bradley 1988; Bradley 1998; Needham 1988; Hill 1995. Scholars used to interpret such deposits as being connected
with warfare: for example, Evans (1881) states: ‘these (Bronze Age) hoards seem to be of more than one character.
In certain cases they seem to have been the treasured property of some individual who would appear to have buried
his valued tools or weapons during troublous times, and never to have been able to disinter them. In other cases the
hoards were probably the property of a trader, as they consist of objects ready for use and in considerable numbers;
and in others they appear to have been the stock-in-trade of some bronze-founder of ancient times, as they comprise
worn out and broken tools and weapons, lumps of rough metal, and even the moulds in which the accumulation of
bronze was destined to be recast.’ Fifty years later this interpretation can still be found: Kendrick speaks of ‘these two
groups of hoards [of the Bronze Age] may be taken to indicate, first, definite invaders from the West Alpine region,
coming by way of N. France … and imposing themselves in the Lowland zone…’ (Hawkes and Kendrick 1932, 135).
13
Petts 2003 argues that many or most of the c.20 late Roman baptismal lead tanks found in Britain should be
regarded as having been buried for votive reasons; while Thomas 2008 argues that a hoard of Anglo-Saxon ironwork
from a settlement at Bishopstone, E. Sussex should be regarded as votive and Ottaway 2009 for a hoard of Anglo-Saxon
iron tools from Flixborough, N. Lincolnshire. See also Hobbs 2006, Bradley 2015 and Naylor 2015.
14
Aitchison 1988 suggests that some Roman coin hoards may have been buried for votive reasons. He also makes an
important distinction between hoards buried with the province of Britain and those buried north of Hadrian’s Wall or
the Antonine Wall in Scotland: once coins were exported beyond the frontier their whole function changed.

HOARDING IN BRITAIN: AN OVERVIEW 9

2.3. Hoards: a working definition

If we focus on the reasons why hoards were buried and not recovered, we can propose the following
categories: (a) accidental losses; (b) hoards buried with the intention of recovery and (c) hoards
deliberately abandoned for a variety of reasons, including votive. A further variation in this simple
categorisation is provided by the theory that at certain periods, for example after ad 296 when radi-
ates were replaced with nummi, it is possible that hoards which had been deliberately buried in the
ground were not recovered by their owners because the coins had been demonetised and therefore
were effectively worthless.22
This volume is concerned with hoarding and the deposition of artefacts in the ground in the broadest
sense and by hoard I mean any group of objects which have been deliberately brought together,
but not necessarily deliberately placed in the ground – so the contents of a purse lost by accident
would also count.

2.4. The rate of discovery of new finds

Britain has a very rich heritage of hoards of coins and metal artefacts and their study underpins
our understanding of how coins and other metal artefacts circulated in this country. The growth
of metal detecting from 1970 and the introduction of the Treasure Act and the Portable Antiquities
Scheme in 1997 have led to a great increase in the discovery and recording of hoards. Fig. 1 shows
the numbers of hoards of Roman coins discovered each year from the earliest records in the 15th
century ad to 2010, with data derived from Robertson’s Inventory23 and more recent finds reported
as Treasure: the steep increase in discoveries in the last twenty years is very apparent.

10 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

Much has been written on what hoards can tell us about coinage, or, for example, Bronze Age met-
alwork and there have been many studies of hoards of different periods, but there have been few
attempts at an overview of hoarding across time.24
First of all we need to examine the nature of the data. The rate of discovery – and recording – of
hoards has grown enormously in recent years, especially since the advent of metal detecting in the
early 1970s. Fig. 2 is an analysis of the date of discovery of the 695 hoards of radiates in our study.
The oldest discoveries were recorded by Leland in the 1530s and one can see a steady increase in
finds up to the 1970s. The reason for the small dip in the 1980s and 1990s is not clear, but the
number has been climbing again since the introduction of the Treasure Act in 1997 and there are
now around 8 new hoards of radiates each year.
This is in contrast to the pattern of discovery of hoards of coins of the English Civil War, between
1640 and 1650, the subject of a recent study by Edward Besly and Norman Briggs.25 In fig. 2.2 I
compare the rate of discovery or first publication of hoards of the Civil War period with those
of the Roman period. The difference is interesting: the two types of hoard keep in step down to
about 1980 when the rate of discovery of Roman hoards increases dramatically, while there is only
a modest increase in the number of Civil War hoards being found. The difference is due to metal
detecting: the great majority of Roman hoards are now found through metal detecting, whereas
Civil War hoards are most likely to be found during building work with a much smaller proportion
found through metal detecting, as Besly and Briggs have shown.26

Naylor and Bland 2015 are papers from a conference which looked at hoarding in Britain from the Bronze Age to
the post-medieval period. Blackburn carried out a similar analysis for hoards of coins of the period 450−1180: see
Blackburn 2005, p. 26, figs. 1 and 2. The pattern he obtained is very similar to the one for Roman hoards.

HOARDING IN BRITAIN: AN OVERVIEW 11

I should note here that for many of the older hoards the information we have is often very sketchy.
There are 383 hoards which cannot be attributed to a period at all and for many more we only
have a vague or incomplete list of emperors. We do not know the total number of coins for 657
hoards. We are generally better informed on their findspots: we can map all but eight of them, of
which there are four that cannot be attributed to a county, while another four cannot be specifi-
cally located within a county. But we have to expect this given that we are dealing with a body of
material that has been recorded over the last 430 years.

2.5. The pattern of hoarding in Britain, prehistory to the twentieth


century

To introduce this subject I have attempted a very approximate and high level overview of coin
hoards from Britain. This has been compiled from a number of sources. For the Iron Age and Roman
periods, we now have the data gathered by the Coin Hoards project, summarised in the checklist
in this volume. The early medieval data is based on the list held by the Fitzwilliam’s Early Medieval
Coin database27 and the medieval figure on Allen (2012), kindly updated by Murray Edwards. The
post-medieval figure is based on Brown and Dolley 1971, which goes up to 1967, with an estimate
of the number of more recent finds and for the Civil War period we have Edward Besly’s updated
summaries.28

TABLE 2.1. Approximate total number of coin hoards from Britain by period
Period Quantity
Iron Age (c.200 bc – c.ad 50) 355
Iron Age and Roman, mixed (c.90 bc – ad 161) 53
Roman (c.100 bc– ad 474) 3,017
Early Medieval (410–1180) 588
Medieval (1180–1544) 605
Post–medieval (1544–1967) 797
Total 5,415

These figures are for coin hoards. No comparable exercise has been carried out for hoards of metal-
work, although there are projects to study those of the Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman periods.29
There are a few hoards from all periods from the Iron Age onwards that lack coins – the Mildenhall
Treasure,30 the Staffordshire hoard31 and a number of Viking hoards, such as the Huxley hoard32
(many more Viking hoards do include coins). The total is around 5,415 and the Roman period
dominates.

29
There are c.1,063 Bronze Age hoards on the card index of Bronze Age finds held at the British Museum which lists
finds up to 1985 (now in the process of being digitised: see http://micropasts.org./data-centre/); an estimated 200
between 1985 and 2003 when the Treasure Act was extended to include these hoards and 150 since then (information
from Dr Ben Roberts and Dr Neil Wilkin; on Bronze Age gold see Murgia, Roberts and Wiseman 2014). 210 hoards
of Iron Age metalwork are known (Colin Haselgrove, pers. comm.): these are currently the subject of a PhD by Rachel
Wilkinson (University of Leicester) who has details of 239 hoards without coins. Hoards of Roman metalwork are
being studied as a PhD by Rachael Sycamore (University of Leicester) and she has collected details of 559 hoards, of
which 273 consist of metalwork objects only and 286 are mixed hoards of coins and objects (the mixed hoards are
included in the checklist in this volume).

12 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

Fig. 2.3 summarises the number of coin hoards from the Iron Age to 1937. This chart only reflects
the number of coin hoards that have been recovered from these periods and it in no way reflects their
value, which can range enormously from a handful of base metal nummi of the 4th century to the
c.15,000 gold and silver coins and 200 items of gold and silver jewellery and plate in the Hoxne
treasure.33
Fig. 2.4 provides a more detailed analysis of the Iron Age and Roman periods, from c.120 bc to c. ad
491. There are lesser peaks between c.50 and c.20 bc, in the reign of Nero (ad 54–68) and in the 160s
ad, when we have many hoards of silver denarii. There is then a huge spike in the radiate period,
between 268 and 296. In the 4th century the number of hoards is higher than in the early empire
but it is much lower than at the end of the 3rd century, but there is a final peak at the very end of
the period, between about 395 and 410. Map 31 shows the distribution of all Iron Age and Roman
hoards on the database.

Fig. 2.3 Numbers of coin hoards deposited per annum, c.200 bc–ad 1937

The early medieval pattern (Fig. 2.5) is interesting and has been commented on by Blackburn (2003
and 2005). Most of the hoards are quite closely dated. During the 5th and 6th centuries there is
very little coinage in Britain (although recent work shows that it was not entirely absent) and this is
reflected in the very low number of hoards. These start to increase with the resumption of coinage
in the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms after 600 and there is an initial peak at the start of the 8th century.
There is then a decline and hoards start to become more frequent in the mid-9th century – and the
period of Alfred the Great. This presumably reflects two things – the pattern of coin production and
the incidence of Viking raids, so well attested in the historical sources. The dip in the early tenth
century is interesting – could that reflect a respite from Viking attacks?34 There is then a spike in the
early 970s, presumably connected with Edgar’s recoinage of 973, and numbers then rise again for

33
Value is of course a relative concept and varied over time and place. The value of an individual deposit may lie in its
reason for deposition and in the choice of object buried rather than the material from which it is made. Hobbs 2006
developed the concept of ‘equivalent gold weight’ as a means of comparing the relative values of late Roman and early
Byzantine precious-metal hoards.
34
Although there are some large Viking hoards of this period, such as Cuerdale (Graham-Campbell and Ager 2011)
and Silverdale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silverdale_Hoard, accessed January 2014).

the next 150 years, with a peak in the decade of 1060–70 – i.e. the time of the Norman conquest.
There is then a decline under William II and Henry I and another increase in the reign of Stephen
– the anarchy.
In the next period, covering 750 years from Henry II’s introduction of short cross coinage in 1180
to 1937 (Fig. 2.6), things seem to settle down. The main feature of this period seems to be the great
stability throughout this long period, with a modest increase under Elizabeth I and a dramatic spike
at the time of the Civil War in the decade 1639–49 (see pp. 10 and 20–1).
So once we move past the Roman period it is very difficult to divorce the incidence of hoarding –
and it must always be remembered that we only study the unrecovered hoards – we have no means
of knowing how many more hoards were buried by their owners and subsequently recovered – and
times of unrest, whether it be the Viking attacks in the ninth to eleventh centuries, the Norman
Conquest or the Civil War. This prompts the question whether hoarding in a time of unrest can
always be seen as a way of concealing items of value, or could some of these hoards have been
buried for votive reasons, as a magical way for providing protection to the community perhaps? Be
that as it may, the threat of invasion at the time of the Napoleonic Wars is not reflected here.

2.6. Hoarding in the prehistoric period

No one would question the votive nature of deposits of Bronze Age metalwork. Yates and Bradley
demonstrated a correlation between these deposits and river valleys, especially near the source
of rivers (fig. 2.7).35 In that paper they also made the fascinating observation that ‘For some time
it has been obvious that metal detectorists have been extraordinarily fortunate in locating pre-
viously unrecorded hoards. The same people have found them on a number of different occa-
sions. Discussions with the finders have made it clear that this did not happen by chance. Long

Fig. 2.7. Finds of Bronze Age metalwork in Hampshire/West Sussex (Yates and Bradley 2010a)

before prehistorians had realized that the siting of hoards might follow topographic ‘rules’, metal
detectorists had reached the same conclusion’.36
It is similarly clear that the Salisbury hoard was also votive in nature. This consists of over 600
Bronze Age and Iron Age objects dug up by two detectorists just outside Salisbury in about 1985 and
sold to a dealer. It was subsequently investigated by Ian Stead of the British Museum (Stead 1998).
But what was the reason for the burial of the gold cup dating to mid-Bronze Age found by detector
user Cliff Bradshaw at Ringlemere in Kent in 2001?37 It was buried in a Bronze Age barrow, overlaid
by an Anglo-Saxon cemetery: is it from a grave or was it also buried for votive reasons?
Similarly it is hardly controversial to suggest that Iron Age hoards such as the deposits of torcs
(and coins) from Snettisham in Norfolk might have been buried for ritual reasons.38 The hoards of
coins from Hallaton, Leicestershire, also seem to have been buried in the ground for ritual purposes
rather than with the intention of recovery.39 After an amateur archaeologist, Ken Wallace, discov-
ered a number of Iron Age coins in 2000 the University of Leicester Archaeology Services carried
out an excavation on the site between 2001 and 2003. They recovered a total of 5,292 coins in 16
separate groups. The nature of the site remains difficult to interpret – it is on a hillside and there
is an enclosure surrounded by a ditch – and it seems to have been a place where the local people
gathered for ritual feasting as large amounts of animal bones were discovered. At one point, in an
entrance way through the ditch, 14 separate deposits of coins were found while a further away
there the remains of Roman cavalry helmet contained 1,170 coins and a final deposit of 142 coins
and silver objects a little further away still (fig. 2.8; pl. 13 and 14). It is difficult to interpret these
deposits as having been buried with the intention of recovery as they were so close to each other
and all the signs are they were buried for ritual purposes.40 What is interesting is the association of
1170 Iron Age coins with a Roman helmet – it is thought to be early 1st century ad – while radio-car-

However it has been suggested that the hoards could have been buried with the intention of recovery at the time
of the Roman invasion.

bon dates of the pits suggests the site was being used down to the 50s ad, so into the early years of
the Roman occupation.
But why were 39 gold Iron Age staters dating to c. 50 bc found inside a cow bone placed in the
ground? This hoard was found during the excavations at Sedgeford in Norfolk in 2003.41 And yet
presumably hoards were also buried with the intention of recovery in the Iron Age – for example
the hoard of 840 gold staters found by two detector users at Dallinghoo in Suffolk in 2008: the
largest hoard of Iron Age gold coins to have been recorded from Britain (no. 280, pl. 2).42

2.7. Contextual evidence for Roman hoards

So do any Roman hoards have contexts that might provide clues as to why they were buried? Some
Roman coin hoards do have contextual information that suggests a different reason for burial. The
Corbridge hoard of 162 gold aurei (no. 770, Macdonald 1914), closing in 160, may have been buried
by the garrison at Corbridge in response to a raid across the Wall, although it could also be a foun-
dation deposit (figs. 4.17 and 4.18).
Hoards can also be associated with human burials. One recent find from Beverston (Gloucestershire,
no. 1775, pl. 3), consisted of two pots: a smaller one containing 1,446 Roman coins (radiates closing
with issues of ad 282), while the larger one has been x-rayed and found to contain a human cremation
together with another 10 coins closing with Tetricus (no. 1430).

Fig. 2.9. Hoard of ‘barbarous radiates’ from Cardiff Castle (no. 1684; author)

Sometimes, it seems, hoards could be deliberately thrown away. A hoard of 625 small module
radiate copies (fig. 2.9), the so-called ‘barbarous radiates, dating to c.274, was excavated by archae-
ologists from what was interpreted as a rubbish pit in the Roman fort at Cardiff Castle in 2006
(no. 1684). It seems surprising that metal objects would be thrown away, but it does seem to have
happened in this case.
Hoards can also be buried in several pots, such as the example from Chalfont St Peter, Buckinghamshire
(fig. 2.10, no. 1725), which contained three pots of coins, all radiates of the third century ad, where
18 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

Fig. 2.10. Chalfont St Peter hoard (no. 1725; author)

the coins were carefully graded in each pot with the earlier, better quality, radiates in two pots and
the later, more debased issues in a third container.43
It is easy to assume that in a period when both hoards and the coins in them are very abundant,
the deposition of the hoard is likely to take place quite soon after the date of the latest coin. This
is certainly the case with the very numerous hoards of the second half of the third century ad.
However, a hoard of 3,875 third-century radiates to the reign of Probus (276–82) from Bredon Hill,
Worcestershire (no. 1745, figs. 5.21 and 22), challenged that assumption, as archaeological inves-
tigation of the findspot concluded that the hoard was buried inside a building and that the pit cut
for the vessel containing the coins disturbed the latest layer of that building which was dated to not
before 350, 70 years later than the latest coins: this is discussed in more detail in chapter 5 (p. 69).
Of course hoards vary enormously in size and clearly we should not assume the same motive
behind the deposition of a very modest hoard such as eight nummi of the fourth and early fifth
centuries found at Whittington in Northumberland (no. 3027; fig. 6.3; see pp. 109–10) with a find
like the Hoxne treasure of 580 gold and 14,654 silver coins and some 200 items of gold and silver
jewellery, buried some time after ad 407 (no. 3033), and clearly belonged to a wealthy family (see
pp. 113–16).44 One is put in mind of the entry in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, under 418: ‘In this
year the Romans collected all the treasures which were in Britain and hid some in the earth so that
no one afterwards could find them, and some they took with them into Gaul’.45 Although this was
written more than 450 years later, it does seem to preserve the memory of an event that took place
at the end of Roman rule in Britain.

HOARDING IN BRITAIN: AN OVERVIEW 19

Some Roman hoards clearly are votive in character. The Ashwell find of 27 gold and silver objects,
including gold jewellery, a silver figurine and votive plaques of silver alloy and gold (pl. 4) was
originally made by a detector user in 2002 and the site was subsequently investigated by archaeolo-
gists.46 The hoard dates to the later 3rd or 4th century ad and it must have been connected to a tem-
ple or shrine of the hitherto unknown goddess Senuna, who is named on five of the gold plaques.
But what about the Water Newton hoard of Christian silver (pl. 5)?47 As Painter has demonstrated,
that is also clearly religious in character, but could it have been buried for votive reasons? Since the
hoard consists of items used for communion and therefore votive deposition may not be appro-
priate, this hoard has been interpreted as having been buried for safe-keeping, although scholars are
now more willing to believe that specifically Christian artefacts could have been buried as a votive
act in the late Roman world: Petts suggests this as a reason for the deposition of lead baptismal
tanks in late Roman Britain.48
On the other hand it is reasonable to assume that the 12,595 Roman coins found in the excavations
of the Sacred Spring of the Roman baths at Bath (no. 2770), which come from the whole period of
Roman occupation of Britain are not a hoard, but had been thrown into the sacred spring rather as
we throw coins into fountains today.49 Other finds like this are known from Coventina’s Well (no.
3320),50 the Thames at London Bridge and Piercebridge in Co. Durham.51
The circumstances of burial of the Frome hoard highlighted the fact that an unquestioning
assumption that all coin hoards of the Roman period were buried for safekeeping, following the
threat and response model, looks increasingly difficult to sustain (pp. 71–2). We have seen that
other hoards of Roman precious-metal objects seem to have been buried for votive reasons, so could
not this also provide an explanation for at least some coin hoards?
The very frequency with which Roman coin hoards have been found has curiously tended to work
against systematic studies of their context and reasons for burial, as those concerned with their
study have normally not had time to do more than to record their contents. For that reason the
‘Hoarding in Iron Age and Roman Britain’ project was initiated and the parallel volume, Bland
et al., Iron Age and Roman Coin Hoards in Britain (Oxbow, forthcoming), contains the results of a
detailed examination of the contexts of Iron Age and Roman coin hoards.

2.8. Survival factors

In any discussion of the body of hoards that survives for study today we need to bear in mind that
we only know of those finds that were never recovered by their owners, either because they were
unable to do so (because they were killed or forced to flee and unable to return), or because they
never intended to (because they were buried for ritual purposes), or because it was not worth their
while to do so (they were abandoned as worthless). It is also worth considering here that one pos-
sible factor in the large number of hoards that survive from certain periods, such as the later third
century ad, may be their very size, reflecting the fact that the radiate was highly debased and was
therefore produced and hoarded in large numbers, and that this has made them more visible in the
archaeological record and more readily recoverable by metal detecting (chapter 5).

20 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

2.9. Hoarding in the medieval period

Post-Roman hoards are generally assumed to have been buried with the intention of recovery.
Hoards of silver of the Viking period are well-known from Britain and Ireland, the best known
recent example being the Vale of York hoard, discovered by detector users in 2007 and the largest
Viking Age hoard since Cuerdale was discovered in 1840.52 Gareth Williams and Barry Ager were
able to connect its burial with the events surrounding Athelstan gaining control over the kingdom
of Northumbria in 927 (Williams and Ager 2010). Similarly the large hoard of 1,237 gold coins and
jewellery of the 15th century found during building work at Fishpool in Nottinghamshire in 1966
can be associated with known events during the Wars of the Roses (Archibald and Cherry 1966). It
was probably deposited some time between winter 1463 and summer 1464, during a Lancastrian
rebellion against Edward IV.

2.10. Hoards of the English Civil War

In 1974 John Kent discussed coin hoards buried at the time of the English Civil War.53 He argued
that there was no correlation between the storm centres of the war and the location of the hoards,
apart from a cluster around Newark on Trent, besieged three times in 1644–6. His distribution maps
are shown below (Fig. 2.11).

HOARDING IN BRITAIN: AN OVERVIEW 21

Fig. 2.12. Hoards closing with coins of Charles I (Besly 2015)

However, this work has been revisited by Edward Besly who has able to add in many new hoards
discovered since 1974 and, by analysing these much more closely according to the year of issue
of the latest coin, he is able to show that there is a correlation between the hoards and the areas
of fighting – which are well documented (fig. 2.12).54 We can, therefore, conclude that the general
pattern of hoarding at this time does support the threat model, as does Pepys’s slightly later account
of how he buried a hoard of coins.

2.11. Two documented cases of hoarding

In his diary Pepys provides one of the few documented accounts that we have of the burial and
recovery of a coin hoard.55 In June 1667, deeply concerned by the raid of the Dutch up the Medway
and Thames, Pepys took all the gold coins he could lay his hands on in London (£2,300 worth)
and sent his wife and servant to bury them on the family estate in Brampton in present-day
Cambridgeshire. In October, when the threat had past, he went back to retrieve them but had great
difficulty finding where his wife had hidden the coins and, even after a great deal of digging, ended
up £20–£30 short of the amount that had been buried. This is a good example of deliberate burial

22 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

Pepys’s account is well-known. A more recent example is provided by the discovery in 2007 of a
hoard US gold ‘double eagles’ ($40 coins) in the garden of a house in Hackney.56 While digging out
a pond in the garden of the property, residents of the block of flats there came on a glass kilner jar
containing 80 of these coins, which dated to between 1853 and 1913 (pl. 6 and 7).
This was an unprecedented discovery and prompted a programme of research into the building
where the find was made. The current building dates to the early 1950s, replacing an earlier house
which was destroyed in the Blitz in 1940. Extensive research was undertaken to see if might be
possible to trace past residents to identify who might have buried the coins, but the flats had
been used as nurse’s accommodation and married quarters for the police and there were too many
possibilities.
In October 2010 the coroner opened his inquest on the hoard in order to publicise the discovery
to see if any claimants might come forward. Although no claimants did reveal themselves, a local
historian, Mr Alan Selby, contacted the British Museum with a vital piece of evidence. He discov-
ered that the Hackney Gazette for 14 March 1952 (fig. 2.13) had published an account of a coroner’s
inquest held on another hoard, also consisting of US gold coins, which had been found in the gar-
den of the same house. The news report said that the 1952 hoard had been claimed by its owner,
Mr Martin Sulzbacher and it was then possible to make contact with his son, Max Sulzbacher, now
living in Jerusalem, and through him the whole extraordinary story came out.
The coins had been smuggled out of Germany by
Martin Sulzbacher, a German Jewish banker, who
came to England as a refugee in 1938 and was
subsequently joined by his parents, brother and
other members of his family. Martin Sulzbacher
bought the house in Hackney and lived there with
his family. He put his coins in a safe deposit box
in a bank in the City. In 1940 he was interned
as an enemy alien and was sent to Canada on the
‘Arandora Star’ but the ship was torpedoed on the
way. Rescued after many hours in the water, he was
then sent to Australia on the ‘Dunera’, an equally
gruelling passage. At the end of 1941 he returned
to England – having travelled round the world –
and, after a spell in internment in the Isle of Man
was eventually released. His wife and four children
were sent to the Women’s Internment Camp in the
Isle of Man.
The remaining members of the Sulzbacher family
continued to live in the Hackney house. In the
Fig. 2.13. Hackney Gazette, 14 March 1952 summer of 1940 Mr Sulzbacher’s brother trans-
ferred the coins from the city safe and buried them
in the back garden. At the time the threat of invasion was at its height and the family feared the
Germans would break open safe deposits as they had done in Amsterdam should the invasion be
successful. His brother told a family friend what he had done and the friend had asked him to let
him know the exact spot in the garden where the coins had been buried. He replied that since there
were five family members who knew the spot there was no necessity to reveal the location of the
coins. Tragically, on 24 September 1940, the house received a direct hit in the Blitz and all the five
members of the family were killed (fig. 2.14).

Fig. 2.14. Bomb damage to the Sulzbachers’ house in Hackney (September 1940)

On his release Mr Sulzbacher went to the safe in the city and found it empty. The family friend
then told him what had happened and so he arranged for the garden – by that stage a bomb site – to
be searched but without success. However, in 1952 as work commenced on a new building on the
site of Mr Sulzbacher’s house, a hoard of 82 $20 American gold coins dating to 1890 was discovered
in a glass jar. The hoard was awarded to Mr Sulzbacher by the coroner at the time. The coroner
resumed his inquest on the second jar of coins on 18 April 2011 and heard this new evidence and
determined that the coins were the property of Martin Sulzbacher’s son Max and his three brothers
and sisters. So both Pepys and Martin Sulzbacher buried hoards for safekeeping.

12. Conclusions

The evidence does suggest that most hoards from the Early Medieval period onwards were buried
with the intention of recovery, as well as some hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins, but we do
need to keep an open mind. Equally it looks as though a significant number of hoards from the
Roman period may have been buried for votive or ritual reasons. At present we need to be very
cautious in over-interpreting individual hoards or groups of hoards without contextual evidence.
Because coin hoards have been studied by numismatists, all too often too little attention has been
paid to their contexts and that is especially true in the last forty years when so many new finds
have been reported through metal detecting: the resources have not been there to carry out a full
contextual study of all of these, although where this has been done, as in the case of the Bredon Hill
or Frome hoards, that has proved to be very revealing. Archaeologists who study hoards of Bronze
Age objects have been much more likely to carry out an investigation of the context. The best way
to understand the reasons for hoarding better is to carry out a systematic survey of the contexts of
these hoards, and this will be discussed in our other volume.57

CHAPTER 3

THE IRON AGE–ROMAN TRANSITION


TO AD 69

3.1. Introduction

When Claudius invaded Britain in ad 43 there was already a tradition of coin use stretching back to
the 2nd century bc, and de Jersey’s recent corpus provides details of 307 Iron Age coin hoards, while
Robertson’s work on Roman hoards provided details of some 1,990.1 These two corpora have now
been updated by Eleanor Ghey in her work on the Hoarding in Iron Age and Roman Britain project
and consequently the present volume is able to draw on records of 430 pre-Conquest and 2,996
post-Conquest hoards.
With a few exceptions, hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins have tended to be studied separately.2
For the first generation after the Roman conquest of Britain, and in some areas for longer, the two
types of coins circulated side by side and they were hoarded together.3 This project has provided
an opportunity to look at the two types of coins together. Hoards provide a unique insight into the
way in which Roman coinage displaced Iron Age coinages in the new province of Britain after ad
43. Hoards give us information about coin circulation that cannot be obtained from the study of
single finds, although in order to put this into context I will also discuss the data on stray finds in
the database of the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS).
A substantial group of hoards – fifty-five in all – combine Iron Age and Roman coins (Table 3.3) and
these are a particular focus of this chapter. I would not, however, suggest that there was continuity
of coin use between the Iron Age and Roman periods, because the two coinages were very different.4

3.2. Hoarding, c.200 bc–ad 69: the broad pattern

Iron Age coinage is not so closely dateable as Roman coinage, so this is a fairly broad brush picture,
but it does seem clear that there is a peak in hoarding in the 50s bc, so doubt to be associated with
Caesar’s invasions of 55 and 54 bc, and then a lull between 20 bc and ad 10, an increase between ad
10 and 40 (roughly the reign of Cunobelin) and a peak after the Roman invasion of ad 43.5
The geographical distribution of all hoards from Britain down to ad 41 is shown in map 1 (single
finds recorded by the PAS coins shown as lighter coloured dots). Hoards are mostly concentrated
in the south and east. Maps 2 and 3 show the hoards closing in ad 41–54 and 54–69 respectively.

Exceptions are Colin Haselgrove (2006), John Creighton (1994 and 2005) and Chris Howgego (2013), although it
would be fair to say that, with the exception of two papers by John Creighton, who makes this very point (Creighton
2005, 69), these scholars have been mainly concerned with single finds rather than hoards.

3.3. Pre-Flavian Roman coins in Britain

Before examining the hoards that include mixed Roman and Iron Age coins and early Roman coins,
it is helpful to consider the background of Roman coin circulation taken from PAS data.6 Over 4,000
coins from the Roman Republic to ad 69 have been recorded and this is their chronological distri-
bution (Table 1):

TABLE 3.1. Summary of early Roman coins on the PAS database (downloaded 1 August 2017)

These reigns are of very different lengths, so Table 2 shows the numbers of coins per annum:

Fig. 3.1 maps the distribution of silver and fig. 3.2 that of bronze coins, with different symbols for
each reign. Both denominations are widely distributed across England and Wales, with clustering
in areas of significant military occupation.
Pl. 8 shows that there was a very steep rise in coin production from Nero’s reign with a peak in
ad 68–9, the year of the four emperors, a phenomenon already noted in my study of gold coinage
found in Britain. 7
In fact the increase in loss starts at the time of Nero’s reform, in ad 64, as the great majority of his
coins were struck after his coinage reform of ad 64. The numbers of coins of Otho and Vitellius are
so high in proportion to the length of their reigns, that it’s rather difficult to see the pattern of the
earlier coinages. Pl. 9 shows the coin loss per annum down to ad 64:
Pl. 8 and 9 just show the actual numbers of coins recorded by PAS, but they do not at all reflect their
value. If we convert the gold and silver denominations to their value in copper alloy asses, we get
a very different picture (pl. 10).

THE IRON AGE–ROMAN TRANSITION TO AD 69 29

There are several important observations to be taken from this. First, although only 28 gold coins
have been recorded, these are not insignificant in terms of their value. Secondly, there is a very
regular flow of silver denarii from the Republic down to ad 69 and, although numbers are reduced
under Augustus, with an increase under Tiberius and then a further drop under Caligula, Claudius
and for the first ten years of Nero’s reign, they are still found in appreciable numbers for those
reigns, which I think has implications for dating hoards that close with denarii of Tiberius – I will
come back to this point. Finally, Roman bronze coins are rare until the reign of Caligula, when
there is a significant number, and a huge increase in the numbers of asses of Claudius (most of these
are contemporary copies), as is well-known,8 and another increase with Nero’s reform from ad 63 or
64. The bronze coins (back row), although they account for a third of all PAS coins, only contribute
a very small amount to the total value of coins lost, which is mostly comprised of the silver coinage.
The question arises as to when the coins struck before ad 43 entered Britain. Although many
Republican denarii are known from Britain – there are 1,777 on the PAS database9 – we know from
hoards that these coins continued in circulation down to the early 2nd century ad (it is believed
that most Republican issues they were withdrawn from circulation by Trajan10) – and it is nor-
mally assumed that most Republican denarii entered Britain after ad 43, for example by Walton and
Moorhead.11 A number of considerations show that Republican denarii were coming into Britain
before the Conquest:
(a) Haselgrove, followed by Walton and Moorhead, noted that two examples are known of
Republican denarii from excavated contexts pre-dating the conquest (Hayling Island, Hampshire
and Humberstone, Leicester), which is a low number,12 but then relatively few denarii of any
period come from securely dated archaeological contexts.
(b) Most significant, however, is the fact that analyses of silver coins of both the Atrebates and the
Corieltauvi suggest that Republican denarii were the most likely source of the coinage metal.13
(c) It is also undoubtedly the case that the designs found on many Iron Age coins of the last years
bc and first years ad were copied from Roman coins, showing that those responsible for the
types of these coins knew Roman issues.14
(d) Walton noted that there is a much higher proportion of Republican denarii of the decade 119–
110 bc among the finds recorded by PAS data than in hoards deposited after ad 43, suggesting
an injection of these coins into Britain at an earlier date.15 Walton and Moorhead conclude
that PAS data suggest that Republican issues may have been deposited within certain prehis-
toric ritual landscapes in the Witham Valley in Lincolnshire, the Isle of Wight and Berkshire.16
(e) Lastly, we may add the evidence of mixed hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins, which has
not previously been brought into the debate on when Republican coins came into Britain (see
below pp. 38–42).17

8
P.-A. Besombes in his publication of the large hoard of Claudian coins from the gué (ford) of Saint-Léonard,
Mayenne (Besombes 2005) has shown how many Claudian copies are from two ‘auxiliary’ mints in Lyon, and one in
Spain. Robert Kenyon is currently working on these coins in Britain.
9
M Antony’s legionary issue of 32−31 bc accounts for 388 of these.
10
Although the hoard evidence seems rather to point to withdrawal under Hadrian: see Reece 1987, 46−70.
11
Walton and Moorhead 2016, 837: ‘it is certainly true that a large proportion of Republican coinage arrived and was
lost after ad 43…’ In 1973 Kent believed Roman coinage only entered Britain after ad 43.
12
Haselgrove 2006, n. 54; Walton and Moorhead 2016, 837. Colin Haselgrove has also pointed out to the author (pers.
comm.) that there is also an Iron Age mirror burial from near Portesham, Dorset with a Roman Republican denarius
of c.86 bc (2010 T415). Haselgrove notes: `the burial could be post-Conquest, but this is also a strong candidate for a
pre-Conquest import.’

However, Burnett has commented that the Republican denarii might have come to Britain fresh as part of a later
hoard, brought into Britain by one of the invading force or subsequently (pers. comm.).
30 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

There is thus a substantial body of evidence to show that Republican denarii did enter Britain before
ad 43 in significant quantities.

3.4. The tablets from the Bloomberg site in London

In Chapter 4 we will see how the writing tablets from the Roman fort at Vindolanda near Hadrian’s
Wall have given us a new insight into how the soldiers based at that fort used coins (pp. 46–7), and
now we have new insights from the tablets found on the Bloomberg site in the City of London,
recently published by Roger Tomlin.18 These all date from the first century ad and the great majority
of them are about business transactions of various kinds; many of them are about lending money.19
One document from ad 57, the earliest dated tablet in the group, shows that within fourteen years
of the Conquest the Romans were issuing financial instruments and making loans (which reminds
us that Tacitus states that one of the reasons why the Iceni revolted was over the calling in of
money lent to them by prominent Romans):
In the consulship of Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus for the second time and of Lucius Calpurnius
Piso, on the 6th day before the Ides of January [8 January 57], I Tibullus the freedman of Venustus, have written
and say that I owe Gratus, the freedman of Spurius, 105 denarii from the price of the merchandise which has
been sold and delivered. This money I am due to repay him… 20
Another tablet could have been written today. It is incomplete and we do not know who the writer
was, or his relationship with the recipient, but it reads:
Because they are boasting throughout the whole market that you have lent them money. Therefore I ask you
in your own interest not to appear shabby … you will thus favour your own affairs… 21
More puzzling is the document from Atticus, dating to the 60s ad, that says:
I ask you by bread and salt that you send as soon as possible the 26 denarii in victoriati and the 10 denarii of
Paterio…22
Victoriati is another term for quinarii, or the half denarius coin. The puzzling thing is that no Roman
quinarii were being struck at this time: Andrew Burnett has wondered whether this could refer to
Iron Age silver units, which were about the right size for quinarii.23
Be that as it may, there is no doubt that in London within a generation after the Roman conquest,
if not before, money and specifically coinage, was in widespread use amongst the traders of the
City – just as it was in Vindolanda on Hadrian’s Wall at the end of the first century ad (see chapter
4). Britain, at least in London and on the frontier, seems to have become a money-using economy
remarkably quickly.

3.5. The disappearance of Iron Age gold coinage

In the Iron Age gold – particularly gold coinage – was widespread, but that this suddenly changed
in the Roman period (mirroring what had happened in Gaul a century earlier).24 This can be shown
by Figs. 3.3 and 3.4, which are based on the coins recorded by the Portable Antiquities Scheme. Fig.
3.3 shows the total number of coins recorded on the database and you can see that Roman coins far

Of the eighty inscribed tablets published by Tomlin, ten mention coins, with denarii mentioned seventeen times,
asses three times and victoriati once. This is very similar to the pattern in the Vindolanda tablets (Chapter 4, table 4.1).

outnumber those of the Iron Age. However, Fig. 3.4 shows the number of gold coins recorded and
you can see that these are much more common from the Iron Age than the Roman period, while
Fig. 3.5 shows the proportion of gold coins recorded on the PAS database for each period.
The reason for the disappearance of gold coinage in the Roman period is not known, although it
should be noted that by the time of the Roman invasion in ad 43, silver and bronze had replaced
gold as the most frequently used coinage metal. This phenomenon was noted by Creighton, who
argued that in the Iron Age gold coins had been struck by the rulers to validate their kingship and
32 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

Fig. 3.5. Proportion of gold coins recorded on the PAS database

that the coins had been used for transactions ‘involving horsemen and chariots’, and that with the
coming of Roman rule these functions were no longer needed. 25 He noted that the main concen-
tration of gold coins shifted from the south and east in the Iron Age to the west and north after the
Roman conquest, reflecting the military zone of the new province.26 It is notable that in the group
of hoards of mixed Roman and Iron Age coins that were buried after ad 69 (Table 3(c)), Iron Age
gold coins are only present in very small numbers.

3.6. The Roman conquest of Britain

At this point, it would be helpful to summarise the progress of the Roman conquest of Britain.27
The first governor, Aulus Plautius, had established the frontier along the line of the Fosse Way
by the end of his term of office in ad 47 with three client kingdoms: the Regni centred on Sussex
under Cogidumnus; the Iceni in East Anglia under Prasutagus and the Brigantes in the North under
Cartimandua. Over the next 13 years the Romans campaigned principally in Wales, which proved
resistant to Roman rule, and also in the North of England. In ad 47–8 the Iceni staged a rebellion,
but were allowed to retain their status as a client kingdom, but in ad 60 Boudicca mounted a much
more serious challenge to Roman rule, which the governor Suetonius Paulinus was only able to
suppress after a time when the whole future of the Province had seemed in doubt. By ad 61, it seems
that the whole of England south of the Humber was under direct Roman rule and the client kingdoms
seem to have been swept away. By the end of the 70s the pacification of Wales was complete and

25
Creighton 2005, 83. For the Iron Age-Roman monetary transition see Reece 1979 and Creighton 1994.
26
Sam Moorhead comments (pers. comm.): ‘I have no doubt that the Roman authorities zealously guarded the mining
and use of gold (even coin) in the military provinces. This becomes much more noticeable in the later Empire. Put
simply I do not think the average person really had access to gold and that its circulation was generally restricted.’
Against this I would note that the analysis of findspots of Roman gold coins in Britain contained in Bland and Loriot
2010, 53–74, would seem to indicate that at most periods gold coins were broadly distributed across Britain, although
there are distinct concentrations in military sites and towns.

in the 80s Agricola completed the annexation of northern England, pushing the frontier to the
borders of Scotland.

3.7. Hoards

Let us now turn to the hoards that straddle the transition between Iron Age and Roman coinage
in Britain.28 There are three main categories, (a) those that contain just Iron Age coins which may
post-date the Roman invasion, (b) those with just Roman coins and (c) mixed hoards.
I will deal with the first category, the Iron Age hoards, briefly, as they have been exhaustively
catalogued by Philip de Jersey. The main Iron Age coinages that traditionally have been thought to
have continued in production after ad 43 came from two peripheral areas, the territory of the Iceni,
in northern East Anglia, and the North Eastern region, traditionally identified as the territory of the
Corieltauvi in the East Midlands, although Colin Haselgrove has recently suggested that post-Con-
quest Iron Age coinage may be more extensive.29 The territory of the Iceni was not brought under
direct Roman rule until after the defeat of Boudicca in ad 61 and it seems that the Iceni continued
to strike coins for a few years after the Roman invasion of ad 43, although it is impossible to be
precise about this, and it may have been until c. ad 50, or it may have ceased earlier than that, in
c.ad 45. 30 The North Eastern region, on the other hand, seems to have been brought under direct
Roman rule by the first Governor, Aulus Plautius, between ad 43 and 47, so it is less clear why this
coinage continued for a few years after ad 43.31 In any case these coinages cannot be closely dateable
so we cannot be certain whether hoards that close with just these coins come from the 50s rather
than the two previous decades. There are sixty-seven hoards of Iron Age coins that could post-date
ad 43 and their distribution is shown in Fig. 3.6. They are predominantly from East Anglia and the
East Midlands and Yorkshire.
Sam Moorhead has recently drawn attention to a group of hoards, both of Iron Age coins exclusively
and of Iron Age and Roman coins, and also of single finds recorded by PAS, that may be connected
with the activities of Caratacus after the Roman invasion.32 Caratacus was one of the sons of
Cunobelin who, according to the historian Tacitus, led the resistance to the Romans from around
ad 49/50, seven years after Claudius’s invasion. He joined the Silures in south Wales, leading the
resistance to the Roman forces of the governor Ostorius Scapula (ad 47–52); Tacitus (Annals XII.33–
6)33 then tells us that he had to flee northwards and Graham Webster suggested that he made his
final stand in the Upper Severn Valley in Powys, where he fought a battle against the Romans in
which he was defeated and fled to the territory of the Brigantes, which included much of the north
of England.34 However, their Queen Cartimandua, another client ruler, handed him over to the
Romans. Moorhead has suggested that seven hoards of Roman and Iron Age coins of this period

See Mattingly 1932, Sutherland 1937, Orna-Ornstein 1997, Abdy 2002.
29
Haselgrove (2006, 105−6) suggests that some of the issues of Cunobelin, who died shortly before the invasion in
ad 43, may be posthumous, while he also suggests that the SOLIDV and AGR issues could also be post-Conquest.
Haselgrove has commented to the author (pers. comm.) that ‘on the ending of British coinage, Ian Leins has followed
the conventional view on Cunobelin, but allows the outlying series to continue to c.ad 45 (Dobunni, Durotriges)
or c.ad 50 (Corieltauvi, Iceni). John Talbot (2016) sees Icenian coinage continuing after the conquest [invasion] ‘in
a steady orderly way’ but does not offer a specific end date, other than the Boudiccan revolt. In truth, we just don’t
know.’
30
The latest scholar to have studied the Icenian coinage, John Talbot, concludes: ‘the terminus of the coinage has
been taken as the conquest in 43 ad. The assumption that Icenian coinage ceased after the conquest is based upon
analysis of the available evidence, including in particular the late hoards, but unfortunately as with the starting date
for the coinage, the evidence is not definitive and production may have continued for a few years post conquest’
(Talbot 2011, 80). Cottam et al. 2010, 90 propose that coinage continued to c.ad 47. See also Allen 1970 and Chadburn
1990 and 1992.
31
Cottam et al. 2010, 99−102 suggest the coinage continued until ad 47. See May 1994.

THE IRON AGE–ROMAN TRANSITION TO AD 69 35

Fig. 3.7. Hoards possibly associated with Caratacus’s resistance to Roman rule (courtesy Katherine Robbins)

from Powys, Shropshire (2), Cheshire and Greater Manchester (2), Warwickshire and West Yorkshire
may be associated with Caratacus’s resistance (fig. 3.7), along with a number of single finds of early
denarii recorded by PAS from the Upper Severn Valley. To the extent that all these locations are
outside the normal circulation area of Iron Age and early Roman coins, there is an attraction in this
theory.35
Turning to the hoards of Roman coins with a terminal date of ad 69 or earlier (see chapter 4 for
later hoards), there are some 144 of these, 103 of which consist exclusively of Roman coins. The
distribution of these is shown in Fig. 3.8.
Very few hoards of gold coins are known, despite the fact that single finds of gold coins from Britain
peak with the issues of the last four years of Nero’s reign and his immediate successors, Galba, Otho
and Vitellius.36 Only seven hoards with a terminus before 69 are known to have gold coins and
four of these are only known from very incomplete antiquarian references. Of the three hoards
that are well described, one is essentially a denarius hoard with one aureus (Owslebury, Hants, no.
328), one (Chippenham, Cambs, no. 431) combines 5 gold staters of Cunobelin, four Roman aurei
(to Claudius) and 37 silver denarii, and there is just one hoard that consists just of aurei. This is the
hoard of 37 aurei, closing with an issue of Claudius of ad 42, found at Bredgar near Sittingbourne
in Kent in 1959 (no. 434, pl. 11). Because of the date of the latest coin to the year before Claudius’s
invasion in ad 43, and the location of Bredgar between Richborough, where Claudius’s force may
have landed, and London, which we know was its first destination, it has been suggested that it
belonged to an officer in the invasion force.37 Be that as it may, the lack of early aurei in British
hoards of the first generation after the Roman conquest is notable.

happened differently’.

44−5).

38 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

A group of thirty-seven Roman hoards from the period we are considering contain bronze coins (fig.
3.9). Only eight of them also contain silver coins and none gold; one includes Iron Age coins. The
coins are mostly quite small groups of Claudian asses and many are from towns – seven are from
Colchester and six from London, for example. Claudian asses and their imitations – which may
have been made by the army in Britain – were the first Roman coins to be very widely circulated in
Britain.38
The majority of hoards of pre-Flavian Roman coins are of silver denarii: 100 of the hoards with
Roman coins have silver coins – 70 per cent. Sixty-four of these hoards close with issues that pre-
date the Roman invasion in ad 43. Because denarii of the Julio-Claudian emperors, at least before
Nero’s reform in ad 64, are relatively rare, it has been suggested that at least some of these hoards
might in fact not have been buried until after the Conquest in ad 43 and, further, that some at least
might be associated with the great disruption that occurred at the time of Boudicca’s revolt in ad
60–1. 39 I am not convinced about this. The PAS data show that denarii of Caligula and Claudius are
not so rare (see Tables 3.1 and 3.2) and it is only the pre-reform issues of Nero that are particularly
scarce. There are only four hoards containing denarii that do close with issues from the first seven
years of Nero’s reign, ie before Boudicca’s revolt, although there are many hoards of Icenian silver
that may belong to these years (e.g., pl. 12: these cannot be so closely dated), so no peak of Roman
coin hoards associated with Boudicca can easily be detected.40

3.8. Mixed hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins

I would now like to focus on the hoards that combine Iron Age and Roman coins, as these are of
considerable interest in clarifying the relationship between Iron Age and Roman period in the first
years of the Roman province, while their study has tended to fall between the stools of Iron Age
and Roman numismatics.
There are 55 mixed hoards and they may be divided into three unequal groups: (a) those whose
latest coins are pre-Conquest, (b) those from the early Conquest period (between ad 43 and 69) and
(c) those from the Flavian period and later. Each of these groups of hoards gives us rather different
information. These hoards are summarised in Table 3 and their geographical distribution is shown
in Fig. 3.10.
Twelve hoards that close before the Conquest combine Iron Age and Roman coins (Table 3.3(a)).
They mostly come from the South East, the part of Britain that was most closely in touch with
Gaul in the pre-Conquest period: five come from Kent, and one each from Essex, Hampshire,
Hertfordshire, Norfolk, Oxfordshire, Surrey and West Sussex. While it is possible that some of them
may have been put into the ground after ad 43, they do, I believe, strongly suggest that Roman
denarii were being imported into Britain before the Conquest.
We then come to a group of twenty-nine hoards that belong to the earliest years of the Roman prov-
ince, between ad 43 and 69 (Table 3.3(b)).41 No fewer than nineteen of these come from East Anglia
(the three counties of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire), and one each from Surrey, Berkshire,
Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Somerset, Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Cheshire and West Yorkshire. It
does seem clear from this that in the client kingdom of the Iceni native and Roman coins circulated

38
Sutherland 1937; Kenyon 1991; Walton 2012.
39
For example, Lind 1992; Creighton 1994 and Orna-Ornstein 1997 provide more nuanced analyses of early denarius
hoards. Moorhead believes that many hoards closing with issues of Tiberius were probably deposited after the invasion
because the denarii of Claudius and Caligula and the first ten years of Nero’s reign are much rarer than the issues of
Tiberius (Moorhead, pers. comm.).
40
However, the latest scholar to discuss this problem, John Talbot, rejects Creighton’s analysis of Icenian hoards
(Creighton 1994) and argues for a strong association with the events of ad 60−1 (Talbot 2016).
41
Two hoards actually have latest coins dating to ad 42, the year before the invasion, but I would suggest that they
belong to this group. There is also considerable doubt about the terminal date of the Waltham St Lawrence hoard (no.
811), as it also included denarii of Sabina and Faustina II, which were thought to be intrusive. However, it is also likely
that not all of the hoard was reported to the British Museum: see Burnett 1990.

alongside each other. It is also possible that the same applied to the North Eastern region, the
territory of the Corieltauvi, as there are four hoards from that area that combine Iron Age and
Roman coins: Honley (no. 505) and Lightcliffe (no. 425) in Yorkshire, Tissington (no. 407) in
Derbyshire and the unique assemblage from Hallaton in Leicestershire (no. 438, pl. 13 and 14 and
fig. 2.8).42
The remaining five hoards are all from the south of England, to the west of London, from Surrey to
Cornwall. One surprising example, found in 2016, comes from St Levan V near Penzance in the far
west of Cornwall (no. 492) and contains 38 coins, 20 Iron Age and 18 Roman, down to Galba, and
includes one Continental Celtic issue, pointing to trade across the Channel.43
They would seem to demonstrate that although the Roman invasion of these areas did indeed lead
to a speedy replacement of the existing Iron Age coinages with the new Roman coinage, there was a
limited amount of intermingling of coinages in earliest years of the Roman occupation of southern
Britain.

42 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

The third group of fourteen hoards of the Flavian period or later (Table 3.3 (c)) show how some Iron
Age coins continued in circulation into the middle of the second century ad, with a particular clus-
ter in Dorset.44 Most of these hoards just include a handful of Iron Age coins in what is otherwise a
group of Roman coins, where the Iron Age coin was probably circulating as an aureus or a denarius.
The latest hoard to include an Iron Age coin demonstrates this point: this is the hoard of 5 aurei,
465 denarii, two Roman bronze coins and one Icenian silver unit from Barway in Cambridgeshire
(no. 1004), closing in Commodus’s reign (ad 183): presumably the Icenian coin was accepted as a
quinarius.
There are two finds which contain substantial numbers of both Iron Age and Roman coins which
bear closer examination: Holdenhurst (no. 670) and Hengistbury Head (no. 785). The two finds
are very similar, Holdenhurst closing in the reign of Hadrian and Hengistbury in that of his suc-
cessor Antoninus Pius, while Holdenhurst lies just five miles inland from Hengistbury Head. The
Holdenhurst hoard was found in a pottery vessel and contains 17 Roman denarii, of which the latest
Vitellius and 44 bronze asses to Hadrian, together with 582 Iron Age coins, nearly all base silver or
bronze Durotrigan staters.
The finds from the Iron Age promontory fort and
trading centre at Hengistbury Head (fig. 3.11) are
more complex, as some 3,232 coins have been discov-
ered over a period of seventy-five years, starting with
J P Bushe-Fox’s excavations of 1911–12, when the
largest group of 3,022 coins was found, and continu-
ing to Barry Cunliffe’s excavations of 1979–84, when
only 11 coins were found (and with other discoveries
between these two dates). Although the coins were
found at different locations across the site, the largest
single group were found in ‘a single mass’ and must
represent a hoard.45 Although there is a wider spread
of types of Iron Age coins than in the Holdenhurst
hoard, base silver and bronze Durotrigan staters
account for the bulk, while of 58 Roman coins that are Fig. 3.11. Aerial view of Hengistbury Head
described, there are 28 denarii and 19 bronze coins to
Antoninus Pius.46 Cunliffe’s excavations showed that
Hengistbury Head was a centre of iron-working and also an important trading centre in the
cross-channel trade in both the Iron Age and Roman periods, so it is not surprising that the coin
assemblage is more varied than the Holdenhurst hoard, but it cannot be coincidental that these
two finds which are so close chronologically are also located so close to each other. Maybe the base
metal and bronze Durotrigan staters continued to be used as currency in this part of Dorset well
into the Roman period, not least because there are two more late hoards that combine Iron Age and
Roman coins just a little to the north: Timsbury in Hampshire (no. 563), a Domitianic hoard, and
Downton in Wiltshire (no. 750), another Antonine hoard.47

3.9. Conclusions

So what conclusions can we draw from this survey of hoarding and coin circulation in the tran-
sition between Iron Age and Roman Britain? In 1979 Richard Reece summarised the then state of
knowledge as follows:

44

45
Bushe-Fox et al. 1915. For recent discussions see Robertson 2000, 177 and de Jersey 2014, 38.
46
Hill’s list of the coins also includes a denarius of Caracalla RIC 71 (ad 203−4) (no. 27 on p. 69), although this comes
from Site 35 which only produced two other denarii (of Vespasian and Antoninus Pius), and not from Site 33, from
which all the other Roman coins and the bulk of the Iron Age coins came.
47
Cunliffe 1987
THE IRON AGE–ROMAN TRANSITION TO AD 69 43

“before ad 43 there was probably Roman bullion in Britain, but no coinage, while after ad 43 British coinage
rapidly dropped out of circulation. The impact is therefore the replacement of a native coinage by an
Imperial coinage.”48

And again:
“None of the sites mentioned so far [Bagendon, Colchester, Verulamium, Hod Hill, Richborough] and no
others that I have yet discovered give any reason to think that Roman bronze coinage circulated, or even
appeared. Before ad 43. No published site that I have been able to find has given any credence to the idea of
Roman silver coins in pre-Roman Britain.49
New discoveries made since Reece wrote have modified that picture considerably. I would draw
three main observations from the present survey:
• First, while it will normally be impossible to determine whether any one of the 1,777 Republican
denarii recorded by the PAS entered Britain before or after ad 43, the fact that some of these
coins are in unworn condition suggests that at least some did (the coin illustrated in fig. 3.12
is a case in point), while the hoards that combine Iron Age and Roman coins that pre-date the
invasion of ad 43, together with other evidence cited above, suggest that significant numbers
of Republican denarii did enter Britain before ad 43.
• In the client kingdom of the Iceni50 and also to a lesser extent in
territory of the Corieltauvi, where Iron Age coins continued to be
issued after the Roman invasion into the 50s ad, both native and
Roman coins seem to have circulated side by side for at least a
decade after ad 43.51 In a small area of eastern Dorset and western
Hampshire and southern Wiltshire, the base silver and bronze
staters of the Durotriges seem to have remained in circulation
until the second century. Haselgrove has recently argued that Fig. 3.12. Republican denar-
there was actually an increase in the use of Iron Age coinage after ius of c.207 bc found in Berk-
shire, recorded by PAS (BERK-
ad 43:
65D307), showing very little
In sum, although the Roman invasion initially led to an intensifi- wear (Walton and Moorhead
cation of indigenous coin use, British coinage started to disappear 2016, 837; courtesy Portable
from circulation during the Flavian period, as Roman coinage Antiquities Scheme)
increased in volume.52
• On the other hand, Iron Age gold coinage seems to have quickly been taken out of circulation
and was not replaced with Roman aurei. This seems to have been done so thoroughly that it
looks as though it may have been done deliberately by the Roman authorities.53

Kent (1973, 10) suggested that mixed hoards occur in those areas where the native peoples were in alliance with
Rome, pointing to the examples from Norfolk and Suffolk. This is an interesting suggestion, but the kingdom of
Cogidumnus, who is known to have been a client king, centred on Chichester in Sussex, has not produced any mixed
hoards.

Butcher and Ponting 2015 have not detected any change in the gold alloy that might result from using bullion
derived from Iron Age gold coins.
CHAPTER 4

THE DENARIUS PERIOD, AD 69–238

4.1. Introduction

More is known about the historical events in Britain in the first and second centuries ad than in the
later period and the main theme of this chapter is whether there is any relationship between these
events and the pattern of hoarding.1 I shall look at the chronological distribution of hoards, to see if
there are any peaks, as there are in the 3rd and 4th centuries, and at their geographical distribution.
This was a period of relative stability in the coinage. Coins in gold (aurei), silver (denarii) and bronze
(sestertii, dupondii and asses) were struck regularly throughout the period and remained in a fixed
relationship with each other. Although there were a number of small changes in monetary stand-
ards – for example under Domitian – and a gradual reduction in the weight and fineness of the
denarius – and the debasement accelerated from the reign of Septimius Severus – the weight of the
aureus also declined and so the two metals kept broadly in step, allowing a fixed relationship to be
maintained, at least until some time in the 220s ad (fig. 5.15, p. 65).2
Alongside the precious metal denominations, which clearly had an intrinsic value, there was also a
bronze coinage – sestertii, dupondii and asses – which was fiduciary in nature. Because the monetary
system was stable during this period, with coins remaining in use for periods of a hundred years or
more, and there were no episodes of recoinage, we cannot point to the demonetisation of old coin
issues as an explanation for hoarding, as is the case with the radiate hoards of the succeeding period
(chapter 5) and hoards of the fourth century ad (chapter 6).
Denarius hoards from Britain have been much studied in recent years,3 especially by Richard Reece,
who devised a visual method of comparing the contents of different hoards,4 and most recently
by John Creighton.5 Creighton distinguished between ‘modern’ hoards, which contain a higher
proportion of recent issues, and ‘archaic’ hoards, from which there are more older issues, noting
that the modern hoards tend to be dominant in the military zone while the archaic hoards are
more common in the civilian zone. From this he concluded that new issues of coins first came into
circulation as military pay. Creighton has demonstrated that this is a fruitful way of studying these
hoards but I will not try to duplicate his work nor that of Reece, as their main focus was to compare
the contents of denarius hoards in order to draw conclusions on the supply of new coin to Britain
and how long coin issues remained in circulation. The focus of this paper is to look at the geo-
graphical distribution of hoards and to see whether there are any links between their chronological
distribution and known historical events.

4.2. The dataset

The hoards discussed here may be summarised as follows:

46 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

• 701 hoards.
• 14 hoards have 4,102 Iron Age coins (for the continued survival of Iron Age coins in some areas
into the second century see chapter 3, p. 42).
• 36 hoards have 643 gold coins (equivalent to 16.050 denarii) (5 contain just one aureus and 5
have an uncertain quantity).
• 498 hoards have 54,021 denarii (7 have just one coin and 49 have an uncertain quantity).
• 222 hoards have 6,884 bronze coins (14 have just one bronze coin and 24 have an uncertain
quantity).
So the great majority of the coins in the hoards are silver, as pl. 15a shows.
This may be compared with the 24,376 single finds of the period ad 69–238 recorded on the database
of the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) (pl. 15b).6 This database consists of single finds, mostly
recovered through metal detecting. Surprisingly, perhaps, silver coins are still in the majority, but
they only just outnumber bronze coins. Of course one expects single coin finds – mainly casual
losses from occupation sites – to be heavily biased towards lower denominations and it comes as
something of a surprise that denarii are as common as bronze coins in the PAS dataset. There are
two factors here: first, the bronze coinage becomes much scarcer in Britain from the Severan period
until its end around ad 260 (bronze coins of the 3rd century are common in the Mediterranean
provinces but rare north of the Alps), while secondly, a significant proportion of the denarii of the
third century in the PAS database are plated copies – probably around 20 per cent of the coins – in
contrast to hoards, which generally discriminate against plated copies.
Pl. 16 shows how bronze coins become much scarcer in the 3rd century: this chart shows the
numbers of coins of different metals recorded by the PAS by period and it can be seen that the
bronze coins predominate down to the reign of Commodus, which ended in 192, while from
Septimius’s reign onwards bronze coins enter Britain in much smaller quantities.7

4.3. Coin use in Britain in the early second century ad: the Vindolanda
tablets

Just as the recently-discovered tablets from the Bloomberg site in London gave us new insights into
the coin using economy of London in the first generation after the Roman conquest (chapter 3,
p. 30), so the Vindolanda tablets have given us a new insight into coin use in the military zone of
Britain at the end of the 1st and start of the 2nd centuries ad.
Several hundred writing tablets were found during excavations in the Roman fort at Vindolanda
from 1973 onwards.8 Vindolanda was a fort established by Agricola on Stanegate – just to the south
of where Hadrian’s Wall was later built – and was garrisoned by the ninth cohort of Batavians, from
the present-day Netherlands.9 The letters throw light on the daily life of the soldiers based at the
fort and give a picture of a far more sophisticated way of life in this remote frontier outpost than
we might otherwise have suspected. The tablets are full of references to monetary transactions. An
excerpt from one of the letters will serve to give a flavour of these documents. (We do not know
who Octavius and Candidus were, except that neither of them was the fort commander – they were
probably mid-ranking officers.)

Data downloaded on 1 August 2017. In Bland 2016, the paper of which this chapter is a revision, there were
21,764 coins on the PAS database (as of 2 November 2015). Therefore an additional 2,612 coins of this period have

THE DENARIUS PERIOD, AD 69–238 47

Octavius to his brother Candidus, greetings. … I have several times written to you that I have bought about
five thousand modii of ears of grain, on account of which I need cash. Unless you send me some cash, at
least five hundred denarii, the result will be that I shall lose what I have laid out as a deposit, about three
hundred denarii, and I shall be embarrassed. So, I ask you, send me some cash as soon as possible. The hides
which you write are at Catterick – write that they be given to me and the wagon about which you write. And
write to me what is with that wagon. I would have already been to collect them except that I did not care
to injure the animals while the roads are bad. See with Tertius about the 8½ denarii which he received from
Fatalis. He has not credited them to my account. Know that I have completed the 170 hides and I have 119
modii of threshed bracis. Make sure that you send me cash so that I have ears of grain on the threshing-floor.
Moreover, I have already finished threshing all that I had. A messmate of our friend Frontius has been here.
He was wanting me to allocate (?) him hides and that being so, was ready to give cash. I told him I would
give him the hides by 1 March. He decided that he would come on 13 January. He did not turn up nor did
he take any trouble to obtain them since he had hides. If he had given me cash, I would have given him
them. I hear that Frontinus Iulius has for sale at a high price the leather ware (?) which he bought for five
denarii apiece. Greet Spectatus and ... and Firmus. …Farewell.10

Interestingly the great bulk of the 233 references to coinage in the tablets are to denarii rather than
to the bronze denominations (Table 4.1) and the letter writers often referred to fractions of denarii
rather than to sestertii, dupondii and asses and often used quite awkward fractions of the denarius,
such as an eighth, although this could have been expressed more easily as one dupondius.11 There
are 18 references to denarii and asses together and only five to asses on their own; none at all to ses-
tertii and only one to a dupondius, all the more surprising given that the sestertius was the standard
unit of account in Rome at this time. Given their rarity in Britain, it is perhaps less surprising that
there are no references to gold aurei.

All in all, the Vindolanda tablets seem to show ready and frequent use of coinage by the writers of
the tablets (mainly soldiers based at Vindolanda), with the denarius being the denomination most
frequently referred to.12 This corresponds with the evidence of hoards and of the coins recorded by
the PAS, which show a distinct preference for silver over bronze coins.

4.4. The denarius period in Britain

Just over three hoards a year (3.24) are known from the Flavian period, the reigns of Vespasian, Titus
and Domitian, from ad 69–96: under Domitian, the governor Agricola, extended Roman rule far
into Scotland (fig. 4.4). Then there is a reduction under Nerva and Trajan (ad 98–117); an increase
to 4.1 hoards per annum under Hadrian, who visited Britain in ad 122 and ordered the construction
of the Wall that bears his name; a further increase under Antoninus Pius (ad 138–61), when the
frontier was pushed north in Scotland and the Antonine Wall was built, in the years from ad 142,
and then a peak in the reign of Marcus Aurelius, ad 161–80, from when over eight hoards are year
known; then a falling off under Commodus ad 180–92 although we learn that the major campaign
of his reign was in Britain in ad 183–4, and a further reduction under Septimius Severus and his

successors, although Septimius led an expedition to Britain in ad 208, at the end of his reign, and
died at York in 211. The number of hoards remain at a low level for the following 27 years until ad
238, when the denarius was replaced by the radiate (chapter 5).
Any attempt to interpret the pattern of coin hoarding in the light of events attested in historical
sources needs to examine whether the date of the latest coin in a hoard can be said to correlate to
the date at which the hoard was placed in the ground. At some periods, when there are gaps in the
striking of coinage (for example during the first ten years of Nero’s reign: see chapter 3, p. 38), it is
indeed dangerous to assume that the two dates are closely linked.13
The same applies at times when existing issues of coinage are called in and the new issues are set at
a very high exchange rate against the old coins: this seems to have happened in 274, after the end
of the Gallic Empire, and again in 296, after the British Empire (chapter 5). However, throughout
the period we are examining in this paper, the coinage was relatively stable and there was regular
supply of new coins, and so I would argue that the date of burial is generally likely to fall shortly
after the date of the latest coin.14 Obviously if the hoard only has a handful of coins, then one
needs to be more cautious. A further consideration is that the historical record for this period is very
patchy and Britain was very peripheral to the concerns of those historians whose works do survive.
So it must be borne in mind that important events affecting Britain may have occurred during this
period of which no record survives in the literary evidence.
Fig. 4.1 shows the chronological distribution of hoards by reign. This is a very broad brush approach
and if we are to see whether hoards can be connected with these events we need to look more
closely at the period. For that we need to present the data according to the date of the latest coin
in the hoard, as in Fig. 4.2. However, only 294 hoards – less than half of the sample – can be dated
this precisely and there is reason to believe that this pattern does not present an accurate picture

14
In contrast to silver issues, Walker (1988, 282−305) showed that the supply of bronze coins to Britain during this
period was often intermittent, particularly in the first century ad, when Walker notes that ‘aes coinage is injected into
circulation in Britain in four short but massive phases: ad 64−7; 71−73; 77−78 and 86−87’.

of all 701 hoards because the numbers of hoards that only be dated to a reign varies from period to
period.15 Fig. 4.3 presents a corrected version using the whole sample – I have redistributed those
hoards which can only be dated to a reign according to the proportions of hoards that can be more
closely dated and this does present a different pattern from the previous chart. I will now look at
these periods in more detail, along with maps of the geographical distribution of the hoards.

Fig. 4.4. Hoards per annum, ad 69–138

Fig. 4.4 shows the numbers of hoards per annum, from the Flavians to the death of Hadrian, a period
of sixty-nine years. Two major historical events are known to have occurred in Britain during these
years. The first was the governorship of Agricola, from ad 77/8 to 83/4, an unusually long term, when
the Romans made a major advance into the north of England and Scotland, culminating in the
Roman victory at Mons Graupius. The frontier was then established along the Stanegate, just south
of Hadrian’s Wall, where Vindolanda was. A high level of hoarding at the start of Agricola’s term of
office dropped off to almost nothing at the end of his governorship: if one were to follow an histor-
ical interpretation this could be taken to mean that Agricola’s campaigns succeeded in establishing

15
For example, 73% of the 125 hoards of the reign of Pius (period 9) are not precisely dataeable, whereas only 37% of
the 91 hoards of Septimius Severus – Elagabalus (period 10) are undateable. The uncorrected chart, based only on the
dateable hoards, therefore gives a misleading picture of the pattern of hoarding across the period as a whole.

peaceful conditions in the Province.16 Hoarding


remained at a low level under Trajan and increased
at the start of Hadrian’s reign; it then fell off during
the 120s, while the Wall was being built (the second
major event), and fell off to nothing in the 130s
(although this may have something to do with the
fact that Hadrian’s coinage cannot be dated to an
exact year), with an increase at the end of his reign.
Hadrian was the first emperor to include explicit
references to Britain on his coins.17 The sestertii of Fig.4.6. Sestertius of Hadrian of ad 134–8 showing
Britannia – there is an early and a late issue – show the Emperor addressing the army in Britain (EXER

Alternatively this pattern could reflect uneven supply of silver denarii to Britain.
17
Several works discuss coin-types relating to Roman Britain: Akerman 1836, Askew 1947, Burnett 1977.

Wall (fig. 4.5). He also refers to the army in Britain (Exercitus Britannicus) as part of a series in which
most of the provincial armies are named (fig. 4.6).
Map 4 shows the geographical distribution of Flavian hoards – they occur widely across England
and Wales with no obvious concentrations. There are very few hoards from the north. We can
compare the hoards with a map of military sites occupied under the Flavians (Figs. 4.7 and 4.8). The
majority of the hoards come from the civilian zone, suggesting that the hoards were largely buried
by civilians rather than the military.
An example of a gold hoard of this period is shown in pl. 17, the Shillington hoard of 127 gold
aurei, closing in ad 78–9 (no. 529). More gold circulated during the Flavian period than subse-
quently, although gold was never common in Britain.
Map 5 shows the distribution of hoards that close with issues of Nerva (there are four) and Trajan
(37): they too are geographically scattered. Map 6 shows the Hadrianic hoards, which are rather
more numerous (there are 85), with a cluster along the line of Hadrian’s Wall, or close to it, and
quite a few in the north of England. We can again make a comparison between the hoards of Trajan
and Hadrian and military sites of this period (figs. 4.9 and 4.10). As with the Flavians the correlation
is not close, except for the hoards along the line of the Wall.

4.6. The Antonines, ad 138–92

Antoninus Pius (AD 138–61): 125 hoards; 4,649 coins on PAS database; map 7
Marcus Aurelius (AD 161–80): 156 hoards; 4,479 coins on PAS database; map 8
Commodus (AD 180–92): 58 hoards; 1,129 coins on PAS database; map 9.
The Antonine period, covering fifty-four years from ad 138 to 192, saw the highest incidence of
hoarding during the denarius period and the peak occurred in the reign of Marcus Aurelius (ad
161–80) (fig. 4.11 and maps 7–9). Pius’s issue of BRITANNIA asses date to ad 154–5. Few hoards are
THE DENARIUS PERIOD, AD 69–238 53

known that close with coins from the start of Antoninus Pius’s reign and there are more from his
later years. There are therefore very few hoards from the period from ad 142 when the governor
Lollius Urbicus pushed the frontier north into Scotland and built the Antonine Wall. However, we
need to add a warning here: Antoninus Pius only started putting his tribunician year on the coins
from ad 147, from when the coinage can be dated to a year, so there may be more hoards from early
in his reign than would appear.

Fig. 4.11. Hoards per annum, ad 138–92

There is a pronounced peak of hoards closing in ad 161–2, at the very end of Pius’s reign and the
start of Marcus Aurelius’s (fig. 4.11),18 although no contemporary historical event is attested in
Britain with which to link this.19 On the other hand the historian Dio tells us that the greatest war
of Commodus’s reign, twenty years later, was in Britain. He states: ‘the tribes in the island crossed
the Wall that separated them and did a great deal of damage, even cutting down a general together
with his troops. Commodus therefore became alarmed and sent Ulpius Marcellus.’20 And we have
coins from ad 184 in which Commodus celebrates his British victory. If hoards were buried because
their owners felt threatened at any time during the period under discussion then this would be it.
And we do have a fairly high number of hoards from 179 and 180 with a reduction after that – but
the peak is not as high as that of ad 161–2 (fig. 4.11).
Fig 4.12 shows two coin types struck by Pius in the 140s celebrating Britannia – these presumably
related to the building of the Antonine Wall at this time – while fig. 4.13 is an as showing

18
The peak of 24 hoards closing in ad 161 in fig. 4.11 is perhaps rather misleading. There are in fact nine hoards that
close with issues of ad 161-2; this figure rises to 24 by extrapolation of those hoards that close with issues of Pius or
Aurelius which cannot otherwise be more closely dated.
19
The Antonine Wall, and southern Scotland, was finally abandoned around ad 158: Birley 2005, 148, Breeze 2006.
Another possible explanation for the spike in hoards closing around 161−2 is that they could represent an accession
donative made by Marcus Aurelius, but we do not see spikes in hoarding at the start of other reigns in this period.

THE DENARIUS PERIOD, AD 69–238 55

Map 8 plots the hoards from the reign of Aurelius,


the peak of hoarding in our period, and it is nota-
ble that there are now more from Scotland. Those
hoards that close in 160 are shown in fig. 4.16, but
they are not concentrated in any one area but are
scattered all over England.
Two substantial hoards of aurei are known from
this period: 126 gold aurei were found at Didcot,
Oxfordshire, in 1995 (pl. 18, no. 771), while the
largest hoard of aurei known from Britain, the
Corbridge hoard of 162 aurei (no. 770), closes just
a year earlier than Didcot in ad 158–9. 22 This was
found during archaeological excavations in 1911
and was buried in a jug in the Roman military
supply base at Corbridge, just south of Hadrian’s
Wall (figs. 4.17 and 4.18). The Antonine Wall
and southern Scotland was abandoned in around
ad 158 and it thus possible that these coins were
buried by one of the garrison at Corbridge in
response to a raid across the Wall. However, the
hoard also coincides with a new phase of build-
ing at Corbridge and it could therefore represent a
(rather lavish) foundation deposit. 23
Another possible explanation for the peak in
hoarding under Marcus Aurelius is provided by the
Fig. 4.16. Hoards of the reigns of Antoninus Pius great plague, probably of smallpox, that is known
and Marcus Aurelius with those closing in ad 160–1 to have swept the Roman Empire between about
highlighted ad 165 and 175. Duncan-Jones has demonstrated
very clearly the devastating effects that it had: in
four Egyptian villages papyri show a population
decline of between 70 and 93 per cent during the
160s, while coin production at the mint of Rome

also fell off in the 170s.24 Could this explain the non-recovery of at least some hoards at this period?
In order to test this theory one would need to see whether there was an increase in hoards closing at
this period across the Empire, since, although it is very probable that the plague did affect Britain,
the evidence for its impact is stronger further East in the Empire. At present this does not appear to
have been the case from the evidence currently available,25 but the database being constructed by
the Oxford Coin Hoards of the Roman Empire project should enable this question to be answered
definitively.26
The final phase of the Antonine period was the reign of Commodus, from ad 180 to 192. Fifty-eight
hoards close in this reign, a rather lower intensity than under Marcus Aurelius. As in the preceding
periods, the hoards are widely distributed with a significant number from Scotland (map 9).

RIC 437: British Museum) and (fig. 4.20) medallion of ad 184–5 showing a more conventional depiction of Britannia
seated (right: Grueber 1874, 12: British Museum)

Commodus celebrated Marcellus’s successful suppression of the incursion in ad 18427 with this
sestertius showing a rather unusual depiction of Britannia holding a wreath and a short sword (fig.
4.19) and with a fine bronze medallion issued the following year (fig. 4.20). Fig. 4.11 shows that
hoarding is at a low level from 184 to 192, so, if a historical explanation were to be adopted for the
burial and non-recovery of coin hoards were to be adopted, it could be suggested that Marcellus’s
action secured a period of peace in Britain.

4.7. From Septimius Severus to the end of the denarius period (ad
193–238)

Septimius Severus – Elagabalus (AD 193–222): 91 hoards; 4,287 coins on PAS database; map 10
Severus Alexander – Balbinus and Pupienus (AD 222–38): 47 hoards; 1,418 coins on PAS database;
map 11.
We now move on to the final phase of the denarius period, from the accession of Septimius Severus
in ad 193, until 238, when the denarius was replaced with the radiate (fig. 4.21 and maps 10–11).
Dio recounts that in 197 Severus sent a new governor to Britain, Virius Lupus, with the remit to buy
off the Maeatae, the people living immediately north of Hadrian’s Wall, for a large sum of money.28
Interestingly there is a significant number of hoards closing between 193 and 196, with fewer after

Fig. 4.21. Hoards per annum, ad 193–238

that date: again, if a historical explanation were to be adopted, perhaps Virius Lupus did succeed in
buying a period of peace in Britain.
The main historical event that concerned Britain was the expedition that Septimius Severus led to
Britain in 208, bringing his two sons with him, Caracalla and Geta.29 He marched into Scotland in
209 and 210, failing to draw the Scottish tribes into a conclusive battle, and Severus died in York
in February 211; upon which Caracalla and Geta rapidly concluded a peace treaty and returned to
Rome. However, Severus and his sons struck an extensive issue of coins celebrating their British
victory (figs. 4.24–26), while an aureus of Caracalla is thought to show the Emperor raising York to
the status of colonia (fig. 4.27).
As can be seen from fig. 4.21, there is no particular spike in hoarding in the years when Severus was
actually in Britain, although with his army of 30,000 men, there must have been a big influx of
coinage into the province: indeed Dio specifically tells us that the Emperor arrived in Britain ‘with
an immense amount of money’.30 The hoards of these three years are widely distributed – perhaps
the ones near the provincial capitals of London and York are significant (fig. 4.22). Map 11 shows
the hoards of the end of the denarius period, from Severus Alexander in ad 222 to Balbinus and
Pupienus in 238. There is a spike in hoards that close in 231 (fig. 4.23), but, as in ad 160–1, these
are not concentrated in one area.
While the majority of hoards of this period are small, there are also some very large denarius hoards:
the largest one of all being a hoard of 9,238 denarii, closing in ad 224, from Shapwick in Somerset
(pl. 19, no. 1163). 31 In fact all four hoards containing more than a thousand denarii from Britain

date to the third century.32 It is not obvious why all the largest hoards of denarii from Britain
should date to this period.
Hoards of bronze coins closing between ad 69 and 238 are also generally small: plate 20 shows
one of the larger hoards, consisting of 425 bronze coins from Curridge, Berkshire (no. 1080, pl.
20). This hoard consists essentially of Antonine issues and has just three coins of Severus and his
wife Domna. Surprisingly the largest hoards of bronze coins from Britain date to the 260s ad, after

The others are: (a) a hoard of 3,169 denarii from ‘the East of England’ (probably Colchester), closing in 231 (no.

bronze issues had ceased to be struck.33 In contrast with silver hoards,


no really large hoards of bronze coins are known from Britain, although
these occur on the Continent.34 It is also noteworthy that by Period 11 (ad
222–38) there are no mixed hoards of silver and bronze coins.

4.8. Conclusions
Emperor raising kneeling
woman (perhaps York) (RIC The main conclusion that we can draw from this analysis is that attempts
119: British Museum) to link the burial of coin hoards to historical events that are known to
have taken place in Britain between ad 69 and 238 have mixed results:
neither the building of Hadrian’s nor the Antonine Walls (from 122 and 142 respectively), nor
Septimius Severus’s expedition to Britain in 208−11, are reflected in peaks of hoarding: rather the
opposite. Furthermore, no historical events are known to have occurred in Britain at the two times
when there are peaks in hoarding: around ad 161−2 and 231 (although this may simply reflect the
fact that no events at this time were recorded in the sources that have come down to us, rather than
that nothing occurred). On the other hand, the reduced number of hoards after Agricola’s cam-
paigns ended in ad 84, after Marcellus’s suppression of the incursion into Britain by the northern
tribes in ad 184, and after Virius Lupus’s buying off of the Maeatae in 197, may have an historical
explanation. A further study could usefully compare the pattern of hoarding of silver coins shown
here with the pattern of production of denarii, based on the hoard evidence. That was beyond the
scope of this paper.
The hoards do, however, allow us to draw some conclusions about coin circulation in Britain:
• The great majority of the 701 hoards of this period are of silver coins;
• Gold coins are somewhat less rare in the Flavian period, they then progressively disappear in
second century, and there are none at all after Marcus Aurelius;
• Bronze coins are hoarded less than silver and there are no large hoards, and the coins become
scarce after Septimius Severus;
• There is little evidence for link between hoarding and military occupation and with a few
exceptions, hoarding does not seem to be substantially affected by knnown historical events;
• While, finally, the data from the finds recorded by the PAS and the evidence of the Vindolanda
tablets show considerable evidence for monetisation; denarii circulated widely.

33
For example, Ham Hill, closing under Postumus, with 1,066 bronze coins (no. 1269) and the Gare hoard, closing
under Victorinus, with 47 silver and 1,037 bronze coins (no. 1350). The composition of these hoards, with large
numbers of very worn coins of the first and second centuries ad seem to suggest that they consisted of coins drawn
from the circulation pool of the mid 3rd century. They were perhaps placed in the ground and not recovered because
they had become demonetised after the 260s and so could not be used as currency. See chapter 5.
34
For example, the hoards from Guelma, Algeria (7,486 sestertii to ad 257: Turcan 1963); Orselina, Switzerland (4,869
sestertii to Gordian III: Ackermann and Peter 2015).; and Garonne, France, (3,663 sestertii to ad 159-61: Etienne et al.
1984).
CHAPTER 5

THE RADIATE PERIOD, AD 238–96

5.1. Previous studies of radiate hoards1

New discoveries of hoards have attracted the attention of antiquarians and scholars since the
sixteenth century if not earlier. However, apart from the work of Poynter discussed in chapter 1
(p. 2), wider discussions of why hoards were buried were much rarer before the twentieth century.
Blanchet’s study of 1900 was groundbreaking in that he argued that by studying clusters of hoards
of the same period one could trace external invasions or internal unrest.2 He supported this with
a corpus of over 800 Roman coin hoards from France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, the
Netherlands and Switzerland, and he proposed a largely historical interpretation for the burial and
non-recovery of these hoards, linking the third-century finds with invasions across the Rhine or
raids along the North Sea coasts and internal unrest, such as that caused by the Bagaudae.
This way of looking at hoards, particularly those of the second half of the third century, has been
extremely influential in Continental studies and still is,3 although British scholars such as Mattingly
questioned this interpretation at least in regard to the many hoards of the period from Britain,
noting that there was little archaeological evidence for damage on this side of the English Channel:
The practice of hoarding coins underground was well-nigh universal in antiquity. But, for a hoard to come
down to us, a second condition, beyond that of its burial, must be satisfied. For one reason or another,
neither the owner nor his heirs must have been able to retrieve their treasure. Obviously accidents will
happen more frequently in time of war or of serious disorder than in more peaceful intervals; a great mass
of hoards in any particular period is, therefore, taken to point to troubles, foreign or internal. Now, the
hoards of debased coins of Gallienus and Claudius and the Gallic emperors are quite remarkably common.
Blanchet, in a book which has become famous, has associated this mass of hoards with the barbarians.4
Naturally there is quite a large element of truth in the conclusions of the French savant. But barbarians will
not account for everything. Their invasions cover neither the whole period covered by these hoards nor the
whole areas of burial. Britain, as well as Gaul, has its hoards in great numbers and Britain has little to suffer
at this time from invaders. It is clear that, instead of ‘barbarian invasions’, we must read ‘general troubles of
the age of which barbarian invasions were a part’.5
In two earlier papers Mattingly was the first scholar to suggest that one reason why many hoards
of the unreformed debased radiates this period were not recovered was because their owners aban-
doned them: they did not trouble to recover them because the coins had been rendered worthless
by the reform of Aurelian.6 He argued that in his reform of the coinage Aurelian set a exchange rate
for the earlier debased issues that was very unfavourable against the new coins, so that these were
largely rejected by people in Britain, Mattingly goes on to refer to ‘numberless hoards [of the old
debased coins of Gallienus and Claudius, Victorinus and Tetricus], which angry or desperate owners
refused to surrender and laid aside in the hope of better times – which, we now know, were never
to arrive.’7 He developed this theory further in 1951 in his paper on ‘The clash of the coinages’.8

62 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

Sutherland’s important overview of coinage in Roman Britain gave a full summary of what was
then known about radiate hoards (and particularly, contemporary copies), but had little to say on
the possible reasons for this outbreak of hoarding.9 Grierson had an influential discussion of hoard-
ing in general,10 while Casey provided a succinct overview of hoarding in Roman Britain which
still stands as a very helpful summary.11 Reece has discussed the issue on several occasions,12 and
in a paper published in 1981 he comprehensively demolished what he termed Blanchet’s ‘invasion
theory’ of hoarding in the third century, suggesting that they may in fact have been abandoned.13
Aitchison published an important paper in which he argued that Roman coin hoards could have
been buried for ritual purposes: this has tended to be overlooked because of its publication in a jour-
nal not always seen by students of coin hoards.14 Ritual interpretations for the deposition of pre-
historic metalwork developed by Bradley15 and others have influenced more recent discussions of
hoarding. Guest’s PhD thesis gave overview of coin hoards from across the western Roman Empire
(excluding Britain), suggesting new ways of interpreting patterns of coin hoarding,16 while Hobbs,
who included hoards of precious-metal objects as well as of coins in his study, similarly developed a
new way of comparing them by calculating the ‘equivalent gold weight’.17 Cheesman also provided
a very helpful and succinct analysis of the main categories of radiate hoards that occur in Britain
(he was not concerned with the reasons for their deposition), 18 while Abdy has written a useful
account for a wider audience.19

5.2. The development of the radiate

In order to understand the pattern of hoarding at this period, I need to describe briefly the back-
ground to the coinage.20 Caracalla introduced a new silver coin towards the end of his reign in 215,
the radiate (fig. 5.2); he issued it alongside the existing coin, the denarius, which was already over
400 years old at this date (fig. 5.1). Traditionally the new coin has been called an antoninianus, after
Caracalla’s official name Antoninus, but that term is certainly incorrect and I prefer to use the term
‘radiate’ since the denomination is identified by the radiate crown which the emperor wears. While
radiates had the same the metal fineness as denarii, with less than 50 per cent of silver, I believe
that the new coin was tariffed at two denarii, although it only weighed just over one and a half
times as much as the smaller coin – a point that would have been immediately obvious to anyone
handling the coins and many hoards of this period contain either one denomination or the other
but not both together.21 The radiate was discontinued after four years and none were issued for the
next 17 years. It was reintroduced in 238, just before the reign of Gordian III and, after that point,
it replaced the denarius as the main silver denomination.
By this period the fineness and the weight of the silver coinage were dropping rapidly. Under
Gordian the radiate coins weighed around 4.15 g and had a silver content of 35 per cent (fig. 5.3);
20 years later under Valerian the fineness had slipped to less than 20 per cent and the weight to 2.9
g (fig. 5.4). In 260, in response to the chaos that ensued after Valerian was captured by the Sasanian
ruler Shapur, Postumus declared himself emperor in Gaul and remained in power for nine years.

THE RADIATE PERIOD, AD 238–96 63

He controlled an area that included Gaul, Germany, Spain and Britain – the ‘Gallic Empire’ – while
Valerian’s son Gallienus remained in control of the rest of the Empire. Postumus stabilised the rapid
decline in the coinage and struck coins at a higher standard than Gallienus’s much baser issues (fig.
5.5). But he too had to debase the coinage in the last year of his reign, and under his successors in
the Gallic Empire, Victorinus and Tetricus (fig. 5.6), the radiate had no more than 1–2 per cent of
silver. These coins were much copied in Gaul and Britain and the so-called ‘barbarous radiates’ are
often tiny coins (fig. 5.7): these can never have passed as regular issues and it is generally accepted
that they were produced to supply a lack in official coinage after the fall of the Gallic Empire in
274 – rather as tokens were produced in England in the sixteenth, eighteenth and early nineteenth
centuries.22

Fig. 5.7. ‘Barbarous’ radiate. Reformed radiates (aureliani) of Aurelian (fig. 5.8) and Carausius (fig. 5.9) (all British
Museum)

Aurelian, emperor 270–5, defeated the last Gallic emperor Tetricus in 274 and Britain and Gaul were
reabsorbed into the Roman Empire. Aurelian also reformed the coinage and struck a new coin, the
aurelianus, which had a silver content of a little under 5 per cent and weighed about twice as much
as the old coins (fig. 5.8). It is thought that the old coins – of which enormous quantities were in
circulation – were only accepted at a punishingly low rate against the new ones, and in Britain
and northern Gaul the evidence seems to be that the old coins continued to be used and the new
reformed issues are relatively rare. This is important for the interpretation of the many hoards that
close with coins of Tetricus (see below). Lastly, twelve years after being reunited with the rest of the
Empire, Britain split away again when Carausius established a separate domain including Britain
and, at first, part of northern Gaul.23 After a shaky start – Carausius’s earliest coins look as though
they had been produced by the same craftsmen as were responsible for ‘barbarous radiates’, his

issues were struck at the same standard as the reformed coins of the central Empire (fig. 5.9). This
standard was maintained by Carausius’s successor Allectus who survived for two to three years
before the junior emperor in the west, Constantius, recaptured Britain in 295/6.24 This marks the
end of the radiate in Britain as Constantius brought with him a new denomination, the nummus,
which had been introduced about two years earlier. 25 The great concentration of hoarding at this
period has to be seen against this pattern of debasement and reform and change in political control.

5.3. Bronze and gold coinages in the third century

The currency system of the early Roman Empire had always been trimetallic, with substantial
coinage in gold and bronze beside silver, but these denominations withered away at this time.
Valerian and Gallienus ceased striking bronze coins before ad 260 (fig. 5.10), as the decline in the
silver coinage meant it was no longer economically viable to produce them.26 Postumus tried to
revive the bronze sestertii and struck what are believed to be double sestertii in the first few years of
his reign (fig. 5.11), but these too rapidly declined in size (fig. 5.12) and ceased to be issued after
about two years.
As regards the gold, emperors continued to strike gold aurei (fig. 5.13) but they too declined in
weight and fineness and, from the reign of Severus Alexander, were no longer produced to a con-
sistent weight, so seem to have circulated more as bullion than as money. 27 In any case, they all
but disappeared from circulation from Britain and no hoards of gold coins are known from Britain
between the late 2nd century ad and the reign of Carausius (apart from a not altogether convincing
reference to a hoard of ‘some rare Roman gold coins of Gallienus’ from Canterbury),28 while only
twenty-two single finds are known from this period. 29

So for the second half of the third century ad, radiates made
of silver that became more and more debased were more or
less the only coins available. Fig. 5.15 from Andrew Burnett’s
book, Coinage in the Roman World, based on John Casey’s work,
shows the decline in the silver and gold coinage from Claudius
I through to Tetricus.

However, as Richard Reece has pointed out (pers. comm.), radiates continued to be struck after the introduction of
nummi and these were actually preferred to the new nummi in Mediterranean provinces.

5.4. Scale of production of radiates

The consequence of all this is that radiates had to be made in great quantities to amount to any
significant value. A die study by Hans Gilljam of the coinage of the Gallic usurper Laelian, who
rebelled against Postumus at the end of his reign, has shown that the coinage was struck from 56
obverse dies.30 Gilljam also collected together figures of coins of Laelian in hoards: in his sample,
he found 286 coins of Laelian, compared with 81,027 coins of his successor Victorinus. Assuming
that the coins of both rulers were equally represented in hoards, as seems reasonable, this suggests
that coins of Victorinus (fig. 5.17) are 283 times as common as those of Laelian (fig. 5.16), implying
that Victorinus may have used 15,850 obverse dies. If we adopt a figure of 30,000 coins per obverse
die (and I know that is controversial but I think for these very low relief coins it could well be con-
servative),31 this would suggest a mintage of 476 million radiates over the course of his 20 month

30
Gilljam 1982 and 1986.
31
This is likely to be an under-estimate, as Laelian only had a short reign and it is likely that coin production in his
name would have come to an end suddenly. This would mean that his coin dies would not all have been used until
they wore out. Victorinus, on the other hand, reigned for about twenty months, and it can be assumed that his coin
dies (at least for his all issues except his final one) would have been used until they wore out. For a general discussion
of the problems of quantifying Roman coinage, see de Callataÿ 1995 and Van Heesch 2011.

reign, which comes out at 5.78 million per week – or nearly a


million a day, if the mint had one rest day a week.
On this basis, even the largest hoard of coins of this period, the
Cunetio treasure with 54,000 specimens, would not represent
much more than a twentieth of one day’s production at the
mint. I would not of course want to push those figures very hard
at all, but I think it is useful to have even the most approximate Figs. 5.16 and 5.17. Radiates of (a)
Laelian and (b) Victorinus (both Brit-

5.5. Denominational composition of radiate hoards

Turning to the composition of the 763 radiate hoards from Britain, they contain a total of 718,434
coins. For the first twenty-five years of this period bronze coins continued to be issued, but they
do not enter into Britain in significant numbers: perhaps this was because so many bronze coins of
the later first and second centuries ad were already in circulation in the province. Only twenty-four
hoards of this period are comprised principally of bronze coins and they account for a total of no
more than 4,479 coins (less than one per cent of the total). I have already mentioned how few
gold coins of this period are found in Britain: there are only 6 from hoards of this period.32 Table
5.1 shows the breakdown by denomination of these hoards: 98.2 per cent of the coins in them are
radiates.

TABLE 5.1. Analysis by denominations of coins in hoards


Denomination Qty. %
Gold 6 >0.00
Radiates 674,904 98.02
Denarii 9,037 1.31
Sestertii 3,829 0.56
Dupondii, asses 659 0.09
Alexandrian tetradrachms 143 0.02
Not known 44,794 –
Total 733,272

However, the frequency of hoards does not reflect the frequency of coin finds. Fig. 5.18 shows the
number of hoards per annum, where the hoards of the radiate period form the peak.
If this pattern of hoards is compared with Richard Reece’s mean pattern of coins from sites in
Roman Britain (fig. 5.19), you can see how the hoards of radiates stand out, whereas among site
finds the peak is in the period from 330–48. This discrepancy is interesting as it suggests that the
large number of hoards of the period 238–96 does not solely reflect the large numbers of coins
being produced at this time: there must be an additional factor for which we need to account,
because otherwise the hoarding peak would be in the period 330–48.

32
At least two coins of Gallienus in the Canterbury hoard (checklist 1306): this find is not well described and there
must be some uncertainty as to whether these coins really were gold); two coins of Carausius in each of the Burton
Hey (1808) and Bradley (1809) hoards.

5.6. Size of hoards

The first point is that many hoards of this period are very large. The five largest hoards of Roman
coins from Britain are all radiate hoards.
Cunetio Hoard (no. 1480; 1978): 54,951 coins to ad 27434
Irchester Hoard (no. 1740; 1963): 42,000 coins to ad 28035
Normanby Hoard (no. 1834; 1985): 47,912 coins to ad 28936
Frome Hoard (no. 1845; 2010): 52,503 coins to ad 29037
Blackmoor hoard (no. 1919; 1873): 29,788 coins to ad 295/638
In addition to these, the Dorchester Hoard (no. 1255) of 20,748 good quality radiates to ad 257,39
while smaller than the others and smaller than two 4th century nummus hoards,40 probably rep-
resents a greater amount of precious-metal than any of these hoards, while the Beau Street, Bath
hoard (no. 1388), is not far behind, with 17,577 coins, many of them denarii and good quality
radiates (see below).41
Fig. 5.20 presents an analysis of the number of coins in these hoards. For 100 finds we do not know
the number of coins, but of the 659 for which we do, the average size is 1,112 coins, a much higher
number than for any other period. However, the largest group of hoards have between 10 and 49
coins, so these are finds of quite low value.

5.7. Date of burial

An issue that needs to be addressed is whether the date of burial of a hoard is necessarily the date
of the latest coin in it (see also p. 48). I would argue that for the whole of this period, with one
exception, there was a regular supply of fresh issues to Britain, so that it is likely that in most cases
the burial of a hoard will follow soon after the latest coin. Obviously for the very smallest hoards,
this connection may be weaker. The one period when the supply of new coin seems to have been
disrupted is after the defeat of Tetricus I in 274 when Britain was reunited with the rest of the
Empire, which by then was using the reformed aureliani, which only occur in Britain in small quan-
tities; this means therefore, that many of the hoards that close with coins of Tetricus could have
been buried significantly later than 274.
In addition to this, determining the date of the latest coin is not always straightforward during the
period of the Gallic and British empires because, while in both cases, it is likely that the latest coins
will be of the Gallic or British emperors rather than their contemporaries in Rome, there are a few
examples where the opposite is the case. Robertson’s Inventory is difficult to use because she did not
make this distinction. It is therefore necessary to look carefully at the latest issues in every hoard.

Fig. 5.21. Coin of Probus from the Bredon Hill hoard Fig. 5.22. Excavation of the hoard (Portable Antiquities
Scheme)

It is also possible that hoards could be discovered and redeposited in the Roman period, or, indeed
not deposited at all until considerably after the latest coin. In 2011 a hoard of 3,847 third-century
radiates, closing with 36 specimens of Probus (276–82: fig. 5.21), was found by a metal detector
user at Bredon Hill in Worcestershire in 2011 (no. 1745). This was the subject of an archaeological
investigation which concluded that the hoard was buried inside a building which was dated to not
before 350 and that the pit appeared to cut through layers containing fourth century pottery, but
the hole made to remove the hoard unfortunately removed this evidence (fig. 5.22). 42 Another pos-
sible example of a radiate hoard that was buried 120 years later than the date of the latest coin was
excavated at a Romano-British site at Redhill, Lilleshall, Shropshire (no. 1437).43 Here excavations
in 1973 in advance of road building brought to light a hoard of 69 radiates, closing with coins of
Tetricus (271–4), deposited in a ditch (Ditch VII) which also contained a coin of Honorius in its
infill, therefore dating to after 395. However, since the ditch surrounded an enclosure whose func-
tion is not certain, this is not a clear cut example either, although the relative proximity of the two
hoards is interesting (they are 50 miles apart). Although the archaeological evidence that suggests
that the date of deposition of these hoards was considerably later than the date of the latest issues is
ambiguous in both cases – which could be explained by the later re-deposition of these finds – they
do at least remind us that we cannot assume unquestioningly that all hoards of this period were
placed in the ground shortly after the date of the latest issue.

70 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

5.8. Some individual hoards

(a) The Cunetio hoard


We have already seen that the largest hoard of this period – and indeed the largest from Britain
of any period – was found at Cunetio in 1978 and contained 54,950 coins, closing with issues of
Tetricus (no. 1480, pl. 21).

Fig. 5.23. Roman Cunetio, showing the findspot of the Cunetio hoard (Besly and Bland 1983)

The hoard was found on the edge of a small Roman town at an important road junction (fig. 5.23,
pl. 22). Although this requires further work, there are some indications that the hoard may be asso-
ciated with a temple.44

THE RADIATE PERIOD, AD 238–96 71

(b) The Frome hoard


One of the most intriguing pieces of contextual information came from the discovery of the Frome
hoard (no. 1845).45 This was found by metal detector user, Dave Crisp, while detecting on farmland
near Frome in Somerset in April 2010. The archaeological record contained no information about
Roman activity on this field, although Mr Crisp had found a stray coin of Hadrian and some sherds
of Roman pottery. His first discovery was a scattered group of 146 late fourth-century siliquae (no.
2764) and subsequent research revealed that a hoard of 111 coins of the same type had been dis-
covered on the same farm in 1867 (no. 2700), so perhaps this was another portion of that hoard.
He continued to search in the same field and received another response about 100 metres from the
findspot of the siliquae. Digging down, he uncovered the top of a large pot that turned out to be full
of coins. At that point he stopped and his local Finds Liaison Officers arranged for the hoard to be
excavated by the archaeologist Alan Graham.
Because of the size of the pot and the weight of the coins, it was dismantled in situ and the coins
were removed carefully layer by layer in over 80 context bags. There were 52,503 coins, making it
the second largest hoard ever to be discovered in Britain. Apart from five silver denarii of Carausius,
the coins were all radiates of base silver, dating from 253 to c.291 (the last two issues of Carausius
were not represented). This is a summary of the hoard, based on a preliminary classification; it is a
typical hoard of a well known class.
The excavation (fig. 5.24) has given us vital evidence about how it was buried. The first point that
became obvious is that the pot, which is quite thin, could never have borne the 160 kg of coins – it
would immediately have collapsed under the weight of them. So the pot must have been placed in
the ground empty and then the coins added to it. Because the coins were carefully recovered in a
series of 10 layers – or spits – we know that most of the coins of Carausius (the latest coins in the
hoard) were more than halfway down the pot and Fig. 5.25 shows the numbers of his coins in each
layer. In addition the 43 Carausian coins in the top two layers have a much earlier chronological
spread than those found lower down the pot. So the coins must all have been placed in the pot on
a single occasion.

This calls into question the traditional interpretation of hoards of this period. If the original owners
of this hoard had intended to come back and recover it later then surely they would have buried
their coins in smaller containers which would have been easier to recover? The only way anyone
could have recovered this hoard would have been by breaking the pot and scooping the coins out
of it, which would have been awkward. In addition there is the fact that another hoard of silver
siliquae, just 100 years later in date, was buried in the same field (no. 2764). Could this have been a
sacred field?46 It is interesting to note that the hoard was buried on high ground, in land that would
become waterlogged without drainage.

The great majority of hoards found today are metal detector finds
and little information is available about their archaeological context,
although analysis of hoards from archaeological excavations through
the Hoards project shows that these finds have a variety of contexts –
buildings, boundaries, rubbish pits etc. A typical metal-detected find
is the Chalgrove hoard (fig. 5.26).47 This seemed like a typical radiate
hoard, but it included a coin of Domitian of Gaul (fig. 5.27).48

This hoard (no. 1255), which had 20,732 radiates (and 16 denarii) down
to ad 257 and is still the largest hoard of early silver radiates, was found in
a bronze jug, bronze basin and what had been a wooden keg with bronze
clasps while building a new Marks & Spencer in Dorchester in 1936: it was
in a pit in the garden of a large Roman building (fig. 5.28).49

There are several examples of hoards found in several containers: Chalfont St Peter (chapter 2, fig.

containers in which the coins were carefully graded and these have the potential to give us insights

74 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

A remarkable hoard was excavated by


Cotswold Archaeology at Beau Street
in the Roman city of Bath in 2007 (no.
1388).55 It was removed by the excava-
tors in a single large soil block and an
X-ray revealed that the hoard was bur-
ied in eight separate bags – although
the material had perished, the shape
of the coins in the bags could be seen
clearly. The hoard contained in all
17,577 coins, ranging from one bag
which consisted mainly of denarii of
the early 3rd century, to four bags of
radiates of the period from Gordian to
Valerian and three more of base radiates
(fig. 5.29 and table 5.3). The latest coins
are of Tetricus and it is reasonable to
assume that the bags were all placed in
the ground at the same time (although
they could have been added to). Hoards
such as this that have been found
during the course of archaeological
investigations are particularly valuable,
as their contexts can give us important
pointers as to why they might have
been placed in the ground. In the case
of metal detected finds, it is necessary
to search for contexts.

Sometimes, it seems, hoards could be deliberately thrown away. A hoard of at least 622 small mod-
ule radiate copies – barbarous radiates – was excavated by archaeologists in a rubbish pit in Cardiff
Castle, a Roman fort, in 2006 (no. 1684) and is discussed in chapter 2 (fig. 2.9, p. 17).

5.9. Chronological distribution of radiate hoards

The hoards are not evenly distributed over this period of 58 years (238–295/6: Table 5.4). The
number of hoards that close with the issues of Gordian and his successors down to Valerian is
low; slightly more end with coins of Postumus or the sole reign of Gallienus and more still with
Victorinus and there is then a great peak of hoards whose latest coins are of Tetricus and the num-
ber then falls back again after that. I have divided the hoards into eight periods with maps for the
distribution of hoards from each period. The maps also include the single finds recorded by the
Portable Antiquities Scheme from that period to provide a context for the hoard distributions.56 In
addition to these, there are also eight hoards which close with nummi of 295/6 to 318 but which
consist principally of radiates57 (see chapter 6, p. 101). There are also at least 11 hoards of radiates
of uncertain date.

(50 hoards; 742 coins on PAS database;58 map 13)
This is the early radiate phase when the coins still contain a significant proportion of silver and
there are many denarii in circulation (as well as bronze coins, though they are rare in hoards). There
are 3.3 hoards per year, a rather low volume: Hobbs showed that the epicentre of hoarding in this

Ideally the background distribution map of single finds would comprise coins from all sources, including excavated
contexts, but these data have not been gathered to together. Walton (2012) did include data from a sample of 368
excavated sites in her study, but these are not classified in sufficient detail to be included in the maps in the present
paper. It should also be noted that the PAS database incorporates the coins from Wales recorded by Guest and Wells
in the Iron Age and Roman coins in Wales project (Guest & Wells 2007), which included 52,813 coins from 1,172
separate finds and these data were drawn from all sources: the distributions of coin finds from Wales are, therefore,
proportionately much more complete than those from England.

period is in the eastern Danube (fig. 5.34).59 Only five hoards consist of bronze coins,60 demonstrat-
ing the limited circulation of bronze coinage of this period in Britain (there are no gold hoards).
The main variation among the 45 hoards of silver coins concerns the proportion of denarii to radi-
ates. Radiates had been struck between 215 and 219, then ceased production, to be reintroduced
in 238 and the hoards of this period demonstrate the gradual replacement of the denarius with the
radiate. There seems little doubt that the radiate was tariffed at two denarii when it was first struck,
even though in weight it was only the equivalent of 1.6 denarii; the overvaluation of the larger
denomination makes it unlikely that the two would have circulated together and most, but not all,
hoards of this period consist primarily of one denomination or the other.61 By and large the pattern
is that the earlier, finer coins are removed from circulation quite rapidly at this time.62
It is difficult to draw many conclusions from the geographical distribution of the hoards (map
13), although the series of three close to the Roman road Littlechester and Templeborough on
the south-eastern edge of the Pennines is potentially interesting, as are the four hoards strung out
across the central Pennines close to the road from Ribchester to York, but it is probably not safe to
draw any conclusions from these two groups as the individual hoards that comprise them are not
contemporary.

(b) Valerian and Gallienus (joint reign), 253–60


(17 hoards; 1,157 coins on PAS database; map 14)
This is a small group of 17 hoards which, in their nature, can be seen as an appendix to group (a):
denarii continue to account for a significant proportion of the silver coinage, while there are no
hoards of bronze coins. The group is dominated by the large Dorchester hoard of 1936 which con-
tained 20,748 coins, all but 16 radiates (no. 1255, fig. 5.28). There are too few hoards to allow any
conclusions to be drawn from their distribution.

(c) The Gallic Empire (1), Postumus and Victorinus. 260–71


(122 hoards; 4,062 coins on PAS database; map 15)
When, in 260, in response to the crisis caused by the capture of Valerian I by Sapur, the governor of
Germany Postumus declared himself emperor he created what we term today the ‘Gallic Empire’,
which survived for fourteen years under five rulers:63 it is unlikely that Postumus or his contempo-
raries saw it as that.64 Gallienus remained in control of the central part of the Empire for a further
eight years. The volume of hoards increases to ten per year.
The last substantial issues of bronze coins (sestertii and double sestertii) were issued by Postumus
in the first two years of his reign65 and there is a group of nine hoards66 that consist mainly of

4 close with Gordian: Flamstead, Herts (no. 1200; 8 den., 44 ses. and 22 AE2) Cheselbourne, Dorset (no. 1205, 12
ses. and 7 AE2); Littleport, Cambs (no. 1209, 29 AE2); Cowbit, Lincs (no. 1214, 91 ses. and 1 AE2); Felixstowe, Suffolk
(no. 1217, 37 aes); and one with Philip: Scottow, Norfolk (no. 1230, 19 ses. and 13 AE2). For comparison, there are 30
first-century hoards with bronze coins (Claudius - Nerva), 84 of the second century (Trajan - Commodus) and 39 of
the first half of the 3rd century (Severus – Postumus).
61
See Bland 1997 for a detailed discussion of the relationship between the radiate and the denarius and hoarding at
this period. The Lime Street hoard (1882, tpq 251, no. 1243) contained roughly equal numbers of both denominations
(437 denarii and 363 radiates), while denarii are excluded from the Dorchester hoard (tpq 257, no. 1255: 20,732 radiates
and 16 denarii) and radiates from Cadeby (1981, tpq 250−1, no. 1242: 103 denarii and 9 radiates).

predominantly of bronze and a further nine that contained both silver and bronze coins.67 The
hoards show how denarii are progressively withdrawn from circulation in this period: they contain
a total of 3,005 denarii compared to 22,008 radiates.68
Table 5.5 sets out the date of the latest coins in this group of hoards and there is a distinct
concentration at the end of the period: 36 hoards close with coins issued between 260 and 268
(4.5 per year), while there are 54 that close with coins of 268–71 (18 per annum): this points to an
increase in the hoarding rate towards the end of the period which reaches an apparent peak in the
reign of Tetricus.

Geographically it is noteworthy that there are significant clusters of hoards from the south west,
Devon and Cornwall, south east Wales, the Chilterns to the north and north west of London and
South Yorkshire (map 15). The PAS finds are very numerous for this period and it is interesting that
some areas which are very rich in PAS finds have no hoards or very few: Suffolk, central Hampshire
and the limestone belt from Northamptonshire south west to Gloucestershire.

(d) The Gallic Empire (2): Tetricus and hoards closing with issues of Aurelian after 274
(245 hoards; 5,535 coins on PAS database, map 16)
The greatest concentration of radiate hoards close with coins of the reign of Tetricus, which lasted
three years: 245. However, since the time of Mattingly numismatists have noted that it cannot be
assumed that all these hoards were put in the ground during this short period of time, as there is a
particular problem concerning coin circulation after the defeat of Tetricus in 274. As noted above,
the reformed coins of Aurelian were not popular in Britain because they seem to have been tariffed
at a high rate compared with the unreformed coins of Tetricus and his predecessors:69 there are 195
coins of Aurelian and Severina on the PAS database from England compared with 5,505 coins of
Tetricus I and II, and 163 of Tacitus and Florian and 328 of Probus.

78 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

In fact closer analysis of the hoards that close with Tetricus shows that most were likely not to have
been placed in the ground until after the end of his reign. For 106 of these hoards we have details
of the types of coins of Tetricus and all these close with coins of the last three issues of the reign
from the principal mint of Trier; these issues are dated to mid 272 to early 274 according to Mairat,70
while 67 of the 106 close with the final issues of Tetricus I and II. These are by no means the largest
issues of the reign, as in the Normanby hoard they only account for 15.5 per cent of all the coins of
the Tetrici, whereas the previous issue 4 from Trier accounts of over half (56.4 per cent) of the coins
of Tetricus present in the hoard (see Table 5).71
This suggests that only some of these hoards were buried during Tetricus’s reign and that the major-
ity were either buried at the very end of his reign or in the twelve years after that, between 274
and the accession of Carausius in 286, as the evidence is that the reformed aureliani of Aurelian
and his successors were discriminated against in Britain (or were not used), a fact that the statistics
of finds recorded by PAS seem to bear out. To these may be added the 120 hoards of group (e) that

I have chosen to use the data from the Normanby hoard as a means of comparing the relative frequency of issues
of the Tetrici both because the hoard closes in the reign of Carausius, so we can be confident that the later issues
should be present in equal proportion to the earlier ones and secondly because it contains 21,591 coins of the reign,
the biggest group from any hoard.
THE RADIATE PERIOD, AD 238–96 79

include coins of Tacitus, Florian, Probus, Carus and family, Diocletian and Maximian, which can
most probably be dated to the years between 275 and 286 and the 53 hoards of barbarous radiates
(group (f)). It seems most likely that the great majority of the hoards in groups (d), (e) and (f) are
earlier than Carausius, as his coins are very commonly found in Britain: there were 3,144 on the
PAS database in August 2017.
Light can also be thrown on the question of whether Tetrican hoards are likely to have been depos-
ited after 274 by examining those hoards that do contain later coins issued between the 274 and
the start of Carausius’s usurpation in 286. There are 120 such hoards in all, and 77 of them are
described in sufficient detail to enable us to determine how many coins they contain that post-date
274 (table 5.8). In the great majority of cases, these hoards only contain a small proportion of such
coins:

TABLE 5.7. Percentage of post-reform coins in hoards of group (e), 274–86


Percentage of post-reform coins No. of hoards
Less than 1% post-reform coins 27
1%–5% post-reform coins 31
5%–10: post-reform coins 10
More than 10% post-reform coins 9
Average % of post-reform coins 7.76

There seems to be no appreciable trend towards post-reform coins becoming more numerous
towards the end of this period.72 The relative scarcity of post-reform coins in such hoards must
therefore make it more likely that many of the Tetrican hoards that close with the final issues of
Tetricus I (SALVS AVGG) and Tetricus II (SPES AVGG) were placed in the ground after 274 simply
because post-reform coins were so relatively scarce in Britain between 274 and 286: statistically
one would not expect to find coins issued later than 274 in hoards of fewer than 50 coins.73 Taking
account of both this consideration and the fact that 67 of the 106 Tetrican hoards whose latest coin
is known go down to the latest issues of the reign, it seems likely that perhaps two-thirds of the
241 Tetrican hoards were actually placed in the ground between 274 and the start of Carausius’s
usurpation in 286.74
Geographically Tetrican hoards are widely distributed (map 16), which is unsurprising given the
number of them: Cornwall and Devon are well represented and, indeed, they are found along the
South coast as far as east as Beachy Head; there is a large group in Somerset and Gloucestershire
and they occur in London and Surrey and in Essex and Hertfordshire, while Norfolk and Suffolk are
under-represented, there are many from the Fens to the west. They occur in Wales and the North
(including along Hadrian’s Wall and north of the Wall – the only radiate hoards to which that
applies). Lastly, there is a significant cluster in the Doncaster area, discussed below.

usurpation in AD 286
(120 hoards; 670 coins on PAS database, map 17)
One hundred and twenty hoards contain the reformed issues struck by the emperors who reigned
after the unification of Britain and Gaul with the rest of the Empire by Aurelian and before the
usurpation of Carausius: these therefore definitely post-date the end of the Gallic Empire. Their
terminal dates are summarised in the table below:

72
Of the 9 hoards with 10% or more post-reform coins, 2 close in 276, 1 in 277, 1 is 278, 1 in 282, 1 in 283−4 and 3
in 285−6.
73
Fourteen of the 67 hoards that close with the latest issues of Tetricus I and II have fewer than 50 coins in all.
74
The Aldbourne hoard (no. 1712) provides a salutary lesson in the fact that further discoveries can change the
terminal dates of hoards: the first discovery of 4,780 coins from this hoard in 1980 (CHRB IV) and the first addenda
of a further 297 coins (CHRB IX) contained no issues later than Tetricus; however, a second addenda found in 2007
contained a coin of Probus dated to 277.

There are peaks of hoarding at the start of the period, in 275–6 (15 hoards) and at the end (282–6,
49 hoards), with relatively fewer in between. However, given that we have seen that perhaps two-
thirds of the 245 Tetrican hoards of group (d) were also buried in this period, perhaps this pattern
is not particularly significant. It is not, of course, possible to date the Tetrican hoards that should
be included within this group more precisely than the period 274–86.
For that reason too, the geographical distribution of the hoards in this group may not be particu-
larly significant as they will only account for a proportion of the hoards buried during these years
(map 17). This group of hoards is quite widely distributed across Britain and the most notable
divergence from the underlying pattern of contemporary PAS finds seems to be a group in central
Lancashire and Cheshire across to northern Derbyshire.

(f) ‘Barbarous radiates’ of c.275–c.286


(53 hoards; 7,902 coins on PAS database, map 18)
This is a group of hoards that consist exclusively or largely of contemporary copies of radiates
known for convenience as ‘barbarous radiates’, mostly of very small module, known as minimi.
These coins used to be attributed to the post-Roman period (‘King Arthur’s small change’75), but the
discovery of a hoard of very small module minimi in the excavation of the theatre at Verulamium
in a secure third-ontext proved that they were in fact contemporary with the issues that they cop-
ied,76 and George Boon argued in his overview of contemporary copies of Roman coins from Britain
that the small module copies, which clearly were not intended to pass as regular coins, were most
likely struck during the period between the end of the Gallic Empire in 274 and the usurpation of
Carausius in 286 in order to fulfil the demand for small change, as the only new coins entering
Britain in these years were the over-valued reformed radiates or aureliani.77
John Davies studied hoards of barbarous radiates in this doctoral thesis, dividing them into two
groups which have very different distributions.78 Hoards with regular issues combined with cop-
ies that are the same module as the regular coins which they copy, categorised as class A, have a
‘normal’ distribution, with their main focus in the south and east of Britain;79 his class B hoards,

which contain small module copies (minimi) and normally no regular issues, have a very different
distribution, with a strong bias in the north and west of Britain.80
In this paper, the hoards in group (f) either consist exclusively of copies81 – Davies’s class B – while
some contain a few regular coins, but where the latest coin is a contemporary copy.82 These hoards
cannot, therefore, be more precisely dated than to c.274 to c.286. Many, if not most, of the hoards
in the other groups also contain copies, often in significant numbers, but in those cases the latest
coins are regular issues.
Geographically the most notable feature of these hoards is their south west bias (map 18): there are
three from Cornwall and a group of ten along the Severn estuary, in Somerset and Gloucestershire
and south Wales, while there is a group of eight hoards from Sussex, although the distribution of
the hoards in my group (f) is broader than Davies’s class B, partly no doubt the result of 20 years’
worth of new discoveries. This is an issue that would warrant more detailed investigation.

(g) Carausius
(89 hoards; 3,144 coins on PAS database, map 19)
Of the 89 hoards whose latest coins date to the reign of Carausius, there are 50 in which the coins
are identified sufficiently to determine to which issue they belong. Details of these hoards are given
in table 5.9. 83

Mostly of rulers from Gallienus to Quintillus and the Gallic emperors, the latest emperors copied are Tacitus and
Probus.
82
For example, Calverton 1959 (no. 1665, Rob. 802) contains 219 regular coins (to Tetricus) compared with 1,241
barbarous, but the latest coins are barbarous copies of Probus. Calverton 1960 (no.1666, Rob. 803) has a similar pattern
with 32 regular coins to Tetricus and 261 barbarous copies, closing with a copy of Probus.

The order of issues of the coinage of Carausius was set out by Carson in two papers: there were prob-
ably three mints, a short-lived Continental mint, which is conventionally believed to have been at
Rouen, London and the C mint.84 It is likely that the unmarked coins were minted at London at the
start of the reign; the location of the C mint is uncertain (Colchester is normally believed to be the
location, while Clausentum and Glevum have also been suggested) and does not concern us here.
These hoards fall into six broad chronological groups:
(a) Group (a) hoards close with unmarked coins (this includes the Burton Hey and Bradley hoards,
each of two aurei (nos. 1808 and 1809) and the Wroxeter (no. 1813) and Strata Florida (no.

84
Carson 1959 and 1971. See also Casey 1994 and Williams 2004 for recent discussions of Carausius’s coinage. Sam
Moorhead is working on a new edition of RIC for Carausius and Allectus which should place all discussions of their
coinages on a much firmer basis.
THE RADIATE PERIOD, AD 238–96 85

1815) hoards which close with denarii of Carausius) and nine hoards with unmarked radiates:
these probably belong to the first two years of the reign, c.286–8.
(b) Group (b) comprises those that close with the earliest coins of London with the mint-mark ML
and may be dated to c.288–9.
(c) Group (c), c.289–90, includes those that close with F O//ML.
(d) Group (d) consists of those that close with B E//MLXXI and contemporary mint-marks from
the C mint and dates to c.291.
(e) The final group (e), c. 292–3, includes those that close with the latest issues of the reign, S P//
MLXXI, S P//ML and S P//C. (The two latter groups are complicated by the fact that it is not
completely clear how the mint-marks at London and the C mint relate to each other.)
(f) Finally, there are two hoards that close with coins of Constantius Caesar which have a terminus
post quem of 293 (nos. 1895 and 1896).
There have been several discussions of Carausian hoards, including by Shiel, Bland and Burnett,
Cheesman and Williams.85
The hoards in groups (a) and (b), closing with unmarked coins and coins with the first mint-mark
of London, --//ML, consist almost exclusively of pre-reform radiates and the reformed aureliani
are absent. 86 The hoards in group (c), where the latest coins have F O//ML, consist very largely of
pre-reform radiates, although post-reform aureliani are present: in small quantities in the Normanby
hoard (no. 1834) and in larger numbers in the Linchmere hoard (no. 1836). However, in the last
two groups, (d) and (e), which include coins with the mint-marks B E//MLXXI and S P//MLXXI,
reformed aureliani are present in significant quantities, reflecting the fact that these late coins of
Carausius were themselves intended to be struck at the same standard as aureliani.
Map 19 shows the geographical distribution of hoards that close with issues of Carausius against
the background of the coins recorded by PAS. The differences are interesting – for example, PAS
finds are very common from East Anglia, the area north of London and Yorkshire, where hoards are
either scarce or absent. The most remarkable aspect of the hoards is the cluster from North Wales
and single finds also seem to be common from there. There are neither hoards nor PAS finds from
Cornwall and Devon.

(g) Allectus
(57 hoards; 2,431 records on PAS database, map 20)
Of the 57 hoards which close with the coinage of Allectus 34 can be identified sufficiently to allow
us to attribute them to particular issues and details of these are given in table 5.10.

Allectus’s reign is short, only two to three years long, and his coinage has been studied by Burnett,
while Besly’s study of the Rogiet hoard has important insights into the production of ‘Q radiates’.87
He struck radiates at both London and the C mint and introduced a smaller denomination at both
mints: these coins are denoted by the letter Q in the mint-mark and used to be called quinarii, but
it is likely that they were half-radiates and they are here termed ‘Q radiates’. The sequence of the
mint-marks on the radiates from London is: S P//ML (carried over from Carausius), S A//ML and S
A//MSL; at the C mint, S P//C and then S P//CL. The Q radiates are mint-marked either QL or QC;
it used to be thought that they were struck at the end of the reign but Besly has shown in his study
of the 757 coins of this denomination in the Rogiet hoard that they were in fact struck through-
out the reign.88 This means that it is probably not useful to divide the hoards that close with coins
of Allectus into chronological groups: the late radiate mint-marks from both London (S A//MSL)
and the C mint (S P//CL) are, in both cases, much scarcer than the earlier mint-marks and we can
no longer assume that the Q radiates were the final issue. There is, however, some differentiation
between the two denominations in hoards, as they tend to contain either radiates or Q radiates
of Allectus and only seven hoards have examples of both denominations (Watchfield, Colchester,
Blackmoor, Ewelme 1953, Arnside, Elveden, Rogiet89) and of these, only the Blackmoor hoard only
has significant numbers of both the radiates and the smaller Q radiates.
Coin circulation in the reign of Carausius and Allectus is also complicated by the presence of the
so-called ‘legitimist’ hoards, a term coined by Anne Robertson in 1949 when discussing the East
Harnham hoard (Table 5.9, no. 1896).90 These are hoards that include coins of Diocletian and
Maximian, including those struck by Carausius, but exclude specimens in the name of Carausius;

the East Harnham, Clapton in Gordano (Table 5.10, 1895), Lillyhorn (Table 5.10, 1898), Lacock
(Table 5.10, 1907) and Gloucester (Table 5.10, 1897) hoards are examples and they are concentrated
in Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Somerset. These finds do seem to point to reluctance on the part
of these hoarders to keep coins of the British usurpers.
The geographical distribution of the hoards that close with Allectus is shown in map 20 and it
is interesting that this is very different from the Carausian hoards: the Welsh cluster is absent,
but again there are few hoards from East Anglia and the south midlands where PAS finds are very
common.
Many, if not most, of the hoards of this group would have been placed in the ground after Allectus’s
defeat by Constantius, who brought with him the new reformed nummi that had been introduced
in Continental mints between 294 and 296.91 The introduction of the nummus does indeed seem
to mark a decisive break in the coinage. Only four hoards combine significant numbers of radiates
and nummi: Langtoft,92 with 3 denarii, 575 radiates and 398 nummi, closing in ad 305; Evenley with
705 radiates and 2,448 nummi, closing in ad 306,93 Falmouth with 128 radiates, 495 nummi and 327
asses/dupondii to ad 307–1094 and Sully 2008a with 490 radiates and 1,878 nummi to ad 318 (see
also Table 6.3, p. 101).95 Hoards of the 4th century show that some third-century radiates – espe-
cially the pre-reform coins – remained in circulation, but the reintegration of Britain into the rest
of the Roman Empire with Allectus’s defeat in ad 295/6 does mark one of the most decisive breaks
in coin circulation in the Roman period.96

5.10. Conclusions

What conclusions can be drawn from this analysis of this large body of hoards?97 Fig. 5.30 shows
the breakdown of radiate hoards by reign of the latest emperor represented.
However, given that we have seen that perhaps two-thirds of Tetrican hoards are likely to have been
put in the ground after 274, this does not present an accurate picture of hoarding at this time as the
apparent peak of hoards that close with Tetricus should actually be spread over a longer period of
time. So in fig. 5.31 I have combined all the hoards that close with coins from Victorinus through to
Diocletian and Maximian before Carausius, 269–86 and this gives a better picture of the hoarding
pattern at this time. If we use this then it appears there was a great increase in hoarding from 269
and, while this dropped off slightly in Carausius’s reign, it remained at a high level in the British
empire.
The German scholar Peter Haupt published a corpus of 1,724 hoards of the 3rd century ad from
Gaul and Germany98 and fig. 5.32 compares the pattern of the Continental hoards (the darker bars)
with Britain (the pale bars). Hoards of the period from 238 to 260 are considerably more com-
mon from the Continent than from Britain, while the Continent is also strong in the 260s under

Mention should also of the hoard of 68 Alexandrian tetradrachms from Guernsey in the Channel Islands (no.
1953), closing with coins of Diocletian and Maximian of 295−6. There was a hoard from London of 46 tetradrachms
of 284−5 (no. 1787) and another of 2 tetradrachms of Probus of 276−7 found with a radiate of Gallienus on the Welsh
coast at Oxwich near Swansea (no. 1703).
97
Reece, in the review that he and Peter Guest wrote of Anne Robertson’s Inventory, pointed out that a group of eight
hoards had a very similar chronological profile, even though these come from a wide geographical area and have
terminal dates ranging from 274 to 289 (Reece & Guest 2001, 196−7). As he noted, ‘the coins were drawn from one
pool of coin circulation in one place, and then carried throughout Britain to be buried at times varying over a twenty
year period’. This suggests that the circulation pool of coins in Britain could remain homogeneous over a considerable
period of time.

Gallienus, Claudius, Postumus, Victorinus and Tetricus. The only point at which the British hoards
achieve parity is from 275 to 286, before the usurpation of Carausius
So how do we interpret all these hoards? As we have seen, the traditional interpretation is that they
were buried by their owners in response to an external threat of invasion or civil unrest, with the
intention of returning later to recover them. In 1988, the French scholar Daniel Gricourt tried to
take this type of interpretation of coin hoard patterns to its logical conclusion by using them to
trace the route of individual barbarian raids in northern Gaul in ad 268, following the coast and the
valley of the Ijzer, or the valley of the Schelde (fig. 5.33).99
Although it is tempting to make an association between a large concentration of unrecovered hoards
and areas of unrest, especially when as in this case they all close with coins of the same period,100
most scholars would agree that this is trying to push the evidence too far. Nevertheless, there is
clearly extensive archaeological evidence for the destruction caused by the barbarian raids on Gaul,
especially Gallia Belgica, in the second half of the third century. The historical sources attest raids
in 250, 259–60 and 275–76 and it is the third of these that seems to have had the greatest impact.101
Earlier accounts state that most of the many villas from northern Gaul were destroyed at this period
and were not reoccupied.102 More recent work has modified this picture: it is possible to find some
villas that seem to have survived the period intact, while it has been suggested that the lack of coins
of 275–96 might mean the temporary abandonment of a monetary economy rather than that the
site was deserted at that time. However, towns also show much evidence of damage at this time and
many of those never fully recovered, being rebuilt in the fourth century on a much smaller scale.103

(Gricourt 1988)

So, although the interpretation of the changes that occurred in both towns and countryside in
Gaul is now more nuanced than it was thirty years ago – there are sites that escaped destruction at
this time and there are suggestions that the changes seen at this period might not all be the direct
consequence of barbarian raids – the overall picture of destruction and dislocation remains.
So what of Britain? If Britain has a greater concentration of coin hoards of this period than Gaul
does, can we assume that the barbarian raids caused even greater destruction on this side of the
Channel than on the Continent? The interesting thing is that the archaeological evidence does not
seem to support that. In 1981 Peter Salway wrote: ‘the evidence suggests that … civil life … contin-
ued in fair prosperity’ and ‘it seems to be established ... that Britain was relatively untouched by the
convulsions elsewhere in the empire in the mid-third century.’104 The final quarter of the century
saw the establishment of many villas which reached their apogee in the first half of the fourth
century, and by this period Britain appears to have been one of the wealthiest areas north of the
Alps – along with Aquitania in south-west France and the area around the imperial capital of Trier.
It is interesting to compare the British pattern with hoards from the rest of the Roman world. Fig.
5.34 is a map of hoards closing between 238 and 260 from Hobbs.105 This includes all hoards, includ-
ing gold and silver objects. Note the great concentration in the Danube area, especially present-day
Bulgaria, with relatively few from Britain and Gaul. It is difficult to separate this pattern from the

historical evidence we have for continued fighting in the lower Danube including the defeat of
Trajan Decius at the battle of Abritus in 251.
Fig. 5.35 is also from Hobbs’ book and shows hoards with a terminal date from 260 to 274. The
focus now moves westwards to Gaul and Britain – again it seems reasonable to assume that this
reflects the well-documented pressure on the German frontier at this period. To this are added the
major barbarian raids on the Empire in the 260s (fig. 5.36) – although of course there is a danger of
a circular argument here, since the compilers of this map may well have used the pattern of coin
hoards in drawing the main lines of attack. That proviso apart, there does seem to be a correlation
(the lack of hoards from present-day Turkey could reflect a low recording rate). Fig. 5.37, also from
Hobbs, shows hoards with a terminal date of 274–96. It is interesting that now there is a very strong
concentration in Britain with much lower numbers elsewhere. Does this mean that Britain was fac-
ing unprecedented pressures at this time? We have just seen that the archaeological evidence does
not seem to support that conclusion.106
If the archaeological evidence does not support the theory that the spate of hoarding in Britain in
the last twenty years of the radiate period, seen clearly in fig. 5.37, is due to external or internal
threats, then we must look elsewhere for an explanation. Another period when Britain saw an
unprecedented level of hoarding was around 395-408, when the number of hoards of gold and
especially silver coins from Britain is unparalleled elsewhere in the Empire (chapter 7). Did Britain
have a ‘hoarding habit’ that emerged at particular periods?
We may leave the last words on this subject with Harold Mattingly, who wrote in 1939:

106
Casey 1986, 65–6 had already observed this apparent anomaly.
THE RADIATE PERIOD, AD 238–96 95

Fig. 5.37. Precious-metal deposits of 275–96 (Hobbs 2006)

“If the view that we are here advocating of these hoards is correct, we shall need to revise our ideas of their
historical significance. We shall no longer be able to crowd them into a period of two or three desperate
years and attribute them to the dread of a barbarian invasion. We shall have to spread them over as much as
a quarter of a century and attribute them to economic rather than to military troubles….
“The second class of third-century hoard – the most common and the most significant of all – is very well
represented in Britain. It consists of masses of debased billon of the Empire from Gallienus to early Aurelian
and of the Gallic Empire, Victorinus to Tetricus (Postumus, as a rule, slightly, if at all, represented): earlier
or later coins occur, if at all, in minute proportions. Sometimes the burial apparently took place under
Aurelian, sometimes it was a little delayed, to Probus or even to Diocletian. Hoards of this kind were con-
ditioned by economic, rather than political, causes. The times no doubt, were bad, life was uncertain and
dangerous, exposed to the risks of foreign and civil war, and the trouble was diffused – not confined to a few
frontier districts. But all these general causes will not explain hoards as widespread in place and as concen-
trated in time as ours, nor will they explain why hoards composed of coins earlier than circa A.D. 273 should
quite frequently not be buried till some ten years later. The composition of the hoards betrays the reason
for this burial. The better silver before the great debasement of 259 had been withdrawn from the market
– melted down, hoarded or called in by the Government: it therefore hardly appears. The new coinage of
Aurelian was in the main deliberately excluded. From 259 to 273 the Government had been issuing money
of vanishing intrinsic value at the old nominal value – practically speaking, an issue of Government war
stock. The disastrous condition of the empire precluded any question of a redemption of this stock at par,
and, undoubtedly, if we could trace the details, we should find that the business world faced the facts and
reckoned with the real depreciation of the coinage. But private holders of the coinage must have hoped for
the best and refused to believe that Aurelian, when he called in the old money and issued new, would not
assign to it at least a tolerable surrender value. But they did not know their man; whether or not out of a
regard for the army as against the civil population, he resolutely extricated the State from debt by throwing
the loss on the private citizen. We do not know at what value the old coinage was called in: we do know
that it must have been so low as to amount almost to repudiation. The proof of this lies in the great riot or
civil war in Rome and in these numberless hoards, which angry or desperate owners refused to surrender
and laid aside for the better times–which, we now know, were never to arrive. Britain, we have said, is very
96 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

rich in these hoards. If we were right above in suspecting that in the previous period it had shown confi-
dence in the Government and had not been quick to hoard the earlier and better silver, we can understand
that resentment at the action of Aurelian must have been peculiarly intense here. In 286 we find Carausius
in Britain modelling his first coinage, not on the reform-coins of Aurelian, but on the debased billon of
the Gallic Empire. It looks as if the new financial system of Aurelian had not succeeded in forcing itself on
the unwilling province; the ‘Expectate veni’ of the coinage of Carausius is simply the vocal expression of a
chronic disloyalty.
“A third class of third-century coins, consisting almost exclusively of coins of the reform of Aurelian, is
very rare in England: those coins probably never came into wide circulation here. Instead, we find hoards of
our British usurpers, Carausius and Allectus, which hardly occur elsewhere, except for finds of one mint of
Carausius (Rouen) in North France; here, it was probably a sense of insecurity that made hoarding popular.
Notable among these hoards are those of Colchester and Linchmere – both of high value for the determi-
nation of the order of the issues. A full survey of the island would probably enable us to say with certainty
where the disputed ‘C’ mint really was – Camulodunum, or Clausentum, or elsewhere.”107
As we have seen, the discovery of the Frome hoard presented a number of features which sug-
gested that it may been buried for ritual reasons rather than with the intention of recovery, not
least because the only way in which it could have been recovered would have been by breaking
the pot and scooping out the coins.108 In addition, the field in which the hoard was found used to
be waterlogged before it was drained in recent times and contained several springs, while a second
hoard of coins dating to the end of the fourth century ad was found in the same field. So perhaps
a ritual motive should not be ruled out in at least some cases: the group of some 11 hoards to the
south west of Doncaster where many of them were focused on natural limestone outcrops in the
gorge of the river Don is another possible group of hoards buried for ritual purposes rather than for
safekeeping.109
We can now present a much more nuanced picture of the terminal date of the 763 hoards from
this period of 58 years.110 The great peak of hoards that close with the Tetrici should, in fact be
spread over the succeeding 12 years and, if fig. 5.32 can be taken to provide the most accurate pic-
ture of the terminal date of this group of hoards, the peak in hoarding occurs in the period from
the reign of Victorinus to after the defeat of Allectus (269–c.300/305). The reintegration of Britain
into the rest of the Empire after Aurelian’s defeat of Tetricus in 274 and the second reintegration
by Constantius in 295/6 can perhaps be seen as major factors in this peak, as in both cases the suc-
cessful emperors brought in new denominations while the old were retariffed at unfavourable rates.
This fact probably did explain why so many hoards remained in the ground, unrecovered, although
it does not of course explain why they were placed in the ground in the first place. For that, we
must seek other reasons and perhaps fear of raids from across both the North Sea and the Irish Sea
(witness the concentration of Carausian hoards along the North Welsh coast) is one factor, along
with the general political uncertainty of the times.

Which could be five to ten years longer if many of the Allectan hoards were buried after Constantius’s reconquest
of Britain in 295/6.
CHAPTER 6

THE FOURTH AND FIFTH CENTURIES


(ad 296–498)

6.1. Introduction: comparison between hoards and PAS finds

Some 1,081 hoards of coins of all metals are known with a terminal date between 296,1 the end
of the radiate period, and the seventh century.2 This chapter presents a general overview of the
hoards of the fourth and fifth centuries, and then has a discussion of the hoards of precious-metal
coins. The hoarding of precious-metal coins and objects in the Late Empire in its wider context is
discussed in chapter 7. Fig. 6.1 shows the number of hoards per annum, by Reece periods:

Fig. 6.1. Hoards per annum, 296–408

The broad pattern in this period is that hoarding is at relatively low level for the first thirty-five
years with 4.7 hoards a year in 296–317 and 6.7 in 317–30 (in the immediately preceding period,
under Allectus, there were 18 hoards a year), and then a first peak in 330–48, when there were 14.6
hoards a year. There is then a series of declines in periods 18 (348–64), 19 (364–78) and 20 (378–88),
and the largest peak is reached in period 21, 388–402 at 18.8 hoards pa, followed by a reduction to 3
hoards pa in 402–6, after which there are no hoards before the Patching (no. 3036), Chatham Lines
(no. 3036A) and Oxborough (no. 3037) finds of 461–70, 467–72 and 474–5 respectively.
After that there are three hoards from the sixth century (Kingston on Thames, Doncaster and
Canterbury, nos. 3038–40) and three from the seventh (Crondall, Norrie’s Law and Horndean, nos.
3041–3). All the hoards that close after 408 and especially those of the sixth and seventh centuries
are, in some sense, unusual and do not represent coins drawn from an existing currency pool. None

Diocletian started striking reformed nummi in 294, but at that time Britain was ruled by Allectus who continued
striking radiates and the new coins did not reach Britain until after Allectus’s defeat in 296.

917 hoards can be attributed to a single Reece period, while a further 164 have to be attributed to more than one
period. The analysis below is based on the first 917 hoards in this group.
98 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

of the hoards that post-date 408 contains nummi: they all consist exclusively of precious metal
coins.
Two hundred and twenty-seven hoards contain precious metal coins (gold solidi or silver siliquae
or miliarenses), while 724 have copper alloy nummi (the contents of the remaining hoards are not
recorded). Some hoards combine gold and silver or silver and bronze coins. A significant number
of third-century radiates were still in circulation and available for hoarding down to the end of the
fourth century (see table 6.1). A few early imperial aes coins survived into Period 15 (296–317) and
a few denarii down to Period 17 (330–48). Fig. 6.2 shows the proportion of gold coins, radiates, silver
coins (siliquae and miliarenses) and nummi is hoards, by Reece period. From this you can see that
in period 15 (296–317) there are still significant numbers of radiates in circulation, but no gold or
silver coins. The radiates then fall to a much lower level after 317 (although some continue to be
found in hoards down to 402). Silver coins start to appear in low numbers in Period 18 (348–64)
and their proportion increases in Periods 19 (364–78), 20 and 21, when they appear in 29 per cent
of all hoards. In Period 22 (402–8), they form the principal element of the currency.
Gold coins (aurei and then solidi) are almost completely absent from hoards of 296–348 and start to
appear in Period 18 (348–64) and from that point their numbers increase until Period 23 (402–8).

Pl. 24 compares the pattern of hoards with PAS finds. For each Reece period, 15–23 (296–498),
the percentage of hoards (by date of latest coin) is compared with the percentage of single finds
recorded by PAS. The main differences that emerge is that, while as a proportion the PAS coins are
more common for periods 17 (330–48) and 19 (364–78), the hoards are much more common for
period 21 (388–402). So, while the GLORIA EXERCITVS and VICTORIAE DD AVGGQ NN nummi of
the House of Constantine and the nummi of the House of Valentinian are amongst the commonest
coins found in Britain, this is not matched by the number of hoards that close with the coins of
those periods. Conversely, there is undoubtedly a great peak of hoards (principally of silver and
gold coins) that close with the issues of 388–402, but as single finds the coins of this period are not
so common.

6.2. Recoinages

The circulation of bronze nummi in the late third and fourth centuries is dominated by a series of
recoinages which seem to have included the calling-in and demonetisation of the old issues (this
did not affect the gold and silver coinages). The principal events were:
• 274: the reform of Aurelian, coinciding with his defeat of Tetricus and the end of the Gallic
Empire: Aurelian introduced new reformed radiates, aureliani, which were heavier and had
more silver than the old coins of the Gallic Empire (see chapter 5).
• 296: the defeat of Allectus, who struck radiates (and the so-called ‘Q-radiates’, an innovation of
his own: chapter 5), and the reintegration of Britain into the rest of the Roman Empire brought
the abrupt replacement of the radiate coinage with the reformed nummi, weighing c.9.7 g.

100 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

• 317: the ending of the SOLI INVICTO COMITI type in the Western Empire and its replacement
with a series of issues at a reduced weight of c.2.5 g seems to have been accompanied by a recall
of the earlier coinage.
• 348: the FEL TEMP REPARATIO coinage was introduced in this year, initially in three denomina-
tions, but it does not seem to have been accompanied by a recall of the prolific Constantinian
issues with GLORIA EXERCITVS and VICTORIAE DD AVGGQ NN, as these continue to be
found in considerable numbers in hoards closing after than 348.
• 364: Valentinian replaced the coinage of Julian and Jovian, struck in two denominations, with
a new nummus of c.2.5 g, but this does not seem to have been accompanied by a recall of earlier
coins.
• 379: in this year Gratian introduced two new denominations alongside the 2.5 g coin: a larger
one of c.5.3 g and a small one (‘AE 4’) of c.1.5 g. Within less than ten years the 5.3 g and 2.5
g coins stopped being issued, but the smallest coin continued to be struck until Anastasius’s
reform in 491. The largest coin never seems to have reached Britain in significant quantities,
but the 2.5 g coin continued in circulation until the end of the 4th century, alongside the new
1.5 g pieces. It is possible that this is because from 364 the nummus had no silver in its alloy.
In between these major breaks in the bronze coinage, there was a whole series of changes – nearly
always reductions – in the weight standard of the nummus. However, the hoards show that coins
of different weights circulated side by side between these major recoinage events. For example, in
the first period, from 296 to 317, there were successive reductions in the weight of the nummus in
308 (to c.6.5 g), 311 (c.4.5 g) and 313 (c.3.5 g), but in hoards of this period coins of all three weights
are routinely found together. By contrast, hoards of coins closing after 317 will generally only have
small numbers of the earlier issues, and the same applies to hoards buried after 348 and 364.
It is also important to bear in mind that all nummi down to Constantius II’s SPES REI PVBLICE
issue of 358–61 contained small amounts of silver in their alloy: while this was never more than 3
per cent and often as little as half of one per cent. We know from Diocletian’s Edict on Maximum
Prices that silver was one hundred times more valuable than copper, so even the addition of half
a per cent of silver to the coinage alloy would have beeen significant.4 After Constantius’s SPES
REI PVBLICE issue, Julian added silver to the alloy of both denominations of his nummi. When
Valentinian reformed the coinage in 364, with the nummus of c.2.5g, he dropped the silver from
the coinage alloy and from 364 onwards, nummi became copper coins.5 This may well have had an
impact on hoards.

6.3 The development of coinage and hoarding, 296-491

In the Constantinian period hoards of bronze coins greatly outnumber those of silver and gold: this
reflects both the very substantial production of bronze coins at this time6 and the limited numbers
of precious-metal coins entering Britain. Gold coins are scarce both as single finds and hoards
before 364, and they peak in the period 364–78;7 silver coins only start to enter Britain in significant
quantities after the reduction in weight of the siliqua that occurred in c.357;8 the finds recorded by
the Portable Antiquities Scheme show that the issues of Constantius II and Julian are common as
single finds, but hoards of siliquae are rare before 367.9
The bronze coins of the House of Valentinian of the period 364–78 are very common as site finds
across much of Britain, and hoards of these coins also occur regularly, although there are fewer than
for the two previous periods. In 383 the Roman mints in the West started to strike a larger denom-
ination, 21–22 mm in diameter, which is very rare in Britain (these coins are common in Spain

and Italy), while after about 388 the only bronze coins found in Britain are those of the smallest
denomination, about 12–13 mm in diameter. The study of the circulation of these issues in Britain
is complicated by the fact that on most examples the legends and mint-marks are normally off the
flan, making full identification impossible, so these coins are likely to be under-represented in the
record as they are frequently categorised as ‘late Roman illegible’. By contrast, after 364 there is a
sharp increase in the supply of both gold and silver coins to Britain and both gold solidi and silver
siliquae peak with the large issue struck at Milan between 394 and 402. After 388 the precious metal
hoards become more numerous than the bronze hoards.
(a) Period 15, 296–317 (85 hoards, adjusted to 98;10 4,502 records on PAS database, map 21)
84 hoards, 29,086 coins, average size: 388 coins
Largest hoard: Evenley (no. 2002): 704 radiates + 2,431 nummi
Gold: 1 hoard has 7 aurei (as well as 96 denarii and 219 radiates: Sully, no. 1970)
Radiates: 21 hoards have 5,854 coins; 10 have 3 coins or fewer
Denarii: 2 hoards have 99 denarii (all pre–241)
Argentei: absent
Early imperial aes: 4 hoards have 413 coins
Nummi: 82 hoards have 22,911 coins
After Britain was re-absorbed into the Central Empire in 296, existing radiates seem to have been
recalled, officially at least, and were replaced with the new nummus, weighing c.9.5g. However,
there were so many radiates in circulation in Britain that they did not all disappear immediately.
In hoards of the period 296–317 radiates represent 19 per cent of all coins hoarded (table 6.2) and
radiates remained in circulation in small numbers down to 402. However, closer examination of
those hoards of Period 15 that do have radiates modify this picture somewhat, as 99 per cent of the
5,635 radiates are found in only six hoards; the other 13 hoards with radiates only have a total of
43 coins between them. These seven hoards are summarised below.

2006 Falmouth (Budock), Cornwall 307–10 128 495 327

The first four hoards, Canterbury, Sully, Dilton Marsh and Wiveliscombe (pl. 25) are essentially
hoards of radiates the latest coins of which date just after the end of Allectus’s reign: Dilton Marsh
and Canterbury each have a single reformed nummus, while the latest coins in Wiveliscombe are
two radiates of Diocletian from Lyon, dated to 298.11 The latest coins in the Sully hoard (no. 1970)
are seven gold aurei of Diocletian and Maximian, dateable to 295–305; the hoard also has 96 denarii
(of 241 or earlier), and 219 radiates. The Falmouth hoard is only known from an old and partial
record and may not be a hoard, as it combines 327 dupondii or asses, 128 radiates with 495 nummi,
an unlikely combination. This just leaves two hoards, Langtoft (no. 1987) and Evenley (no. 2002),
which are well described and which combine significant numbers of radiates with the new nummi.
Langtoft and Evenley are, therefore, very much the exception among the 85 hoards of this period,
the rest of which only contain a very few or no radiates.

10
In addition to the 917 hoards of periods 17−23 (296−498) which can be attributed to a single period, there are a
further 164 which can only be attributed to two or more Reece periods (eg, `Constantinian’, periods 15−17). In the
adjusted figures for the numbers of hoards per period, I have attributed these 164 hoards to each period proportionately.
11
These have the reverse IOVI CONSERVATORI (RIC 47).
102 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

That said, small quantities of radiates survived in circulation throughout the 4th century, account-
ing for between 0.3 and 1.4 per cent of hoards of periods 16 (317–30) to 21 (388–402). Two hoards
had silver denarii issued before 24112 and four hoards had a total of 413 aes coins (sestertii, dupondii
and asses),13 suggesting that people were adjusting to the new currency introduced after the fall
of Allectus in 296 in this period, and that there were still significant numbers of earlier coins in
circulation.
A hoard such as the find from Wold Newton, East Yorkshire (no. 2004), closing in 307 (pl. 26), is
more typical of hoards of this period, although it is larger than most: it contained 1856 nummi and
just a single radiate.

Although the reformed nummus was reduced in weight in 307 and again in 310/11 and in 313 (by
this time the GENIO POPVLI ROMANI reverse had been replaced with SOLI INVICTO COMITI),14
the hoards show that coins of all three weights circulated readily side by side.
Gold and silver coins are almost completely absent from this group of hoards: none contain the
new silver coins, argentei, recently introduced by Diocletian and Maximian,15 and only one hoard
contains gold coins, the Sully, Vale of Glamorgan hoard (no. 1970), which contained seven aurei,
along with 219 radiates and 96 denarii.

In 317 the SOLI INVICTO COMITI coinage came to an end, to be replaced at Constantine I’s mints16
by a sequence of issues between 317 and 330, all at a weight of about 3 g:17
• 318–20: VICTORIAE LAETAE PRINC PERP (Two Victories with altar between);
• 320–1: VIRTVS EXERCIT (standard);
• 321–3: BEATA TRANQVILLITAS (altar);

THE FOURTH AND FIFTH CENTURIES (AD 296–498) 103

These coin issues were struck at the same weight and circulated together side by side, but the issues
struck before 317 do seem to have disappeared from circulation: this is demonstrated by one of the
largest hoards of the period, from Cae Bardd in Powys, with 5,032 nummi, closing in 328, during
the PROVIDENTIA issue (table 6.5). This has only three coins with the SOLI INVICTO COMITI
reverse; all the others belong to period 16, and they are all present in substantial numbers. This does
suggest that there was a systematic calling in of the old coinage after the end of the SOLI INVICTO
COMITI issue in 317–18.
Period 16 is a relatively short period of 13 years, represented by a modest 71 hoards (although this
represents a slightly higher level of hoarding than in the previous period). None of these hoards is
particularly large: the largest (Little Orme, no. 2071), only has a relatively modest 5,032 nummi and
Cae Bardd (no. 2104, table 6.5), 5,005 coins.

The coinage found in hoards of this period is in fact remarkably homogeneous. Amongst earlier
issues, the earlier denarii and aes coins now seem to have disappeared from circulation and only
a few radiates remain (they account for 1.4 per cent of all coins). So far as contemporary issues
are concerned, there are only nummi. Although Constantine introduced siliquae and miliarenses in
323–5,18 these are not found in hoards of this period, while no gold coins have been found either.19

(c) Period 17, 330–48 (211 hoards, adjusted to 263; 30,222 records on PAS database, map 23)
211 hoards, 203,587 coins, average size: 1,039 coins

In 330 Constantine carried out a further reduction of the nummus to 2.5 g, allied with the introduc-
tion of a new reverse type GLORIA EXERCITVS (two soldiers with two standards). Coins with this
reverse (along with the accompanying issues for the cities of Rome and Constantinople) were issued
over the next eleven years, until 341; there was a further weight reduction in 335 to 1.7 g, when
the reverse design was changed to GLORIA EXERCITVS two soldiers with a single standard. This
coinage was discontinued in 34120 and replaced (in western mints) with the reverse VICTORIAE DD
AVGGQ NN (Two Victories), struck at the same standard as the GLORIA EXERCITVS (1 standard)
issue.21 The Two Victories type continued until 348 when there was another major reform with the
introduction of the FEL TEMP REPARATIO coinage, which marks the next period.

18
Carson 1990, 240; Bland, Moorhead and Walton 2013, 117.
19
Constantine introduced a new gold coin, which we call the solidus, at 4.4 g or 1/72 to the pound in 309 (Sutherland
1967, 100; Bruun 1966, 1−3). Hendy (1985, 466) notes that the term aureus was still being used in 323
20
Kent 1981, 60.
21
The date of the VICTORIAE DD AVGGQ NN issue is a matter of some uncertainty. In their Late Roman Bronze
Coinage in 1960 Carson, Hill and Kent dated it to 341−6. As it is now generally accepted that the FEL TEMP REPARATIO
coinage which succeeded it was struck on the occasion of the 1100th anniversary of Rome in 348, it is now accepted
104 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

The coins of this period are the most common issues occurring as single finds, both on the PAS
database and also as recorded by Reece (fig. 5.19). It does indeed seem that they were struck in
very large quantities. It is therefore not surprising that hoards closing in this period are also very
common (there are 211) and that there is a peak in hoarding in this period (fig. 6.1): however, the
hoards of this period are slightly less prolific than the site finds (pl. 24).
Because the coins were produced in such large quantities, eight out of the ten largest hoards of the
4th and 5th centuries date to Period 17 (table 6.6).

One hoard, recently discovered at Seaton Down in Devon, can serve as an example of hoards of this
period. This is the second largest hoard of this period and, indeed, of the whole of the 4th and 5th
centuries: the largest hoard, Nether Compton (no. 2221), only has a few more coins and was never
fully recorded: it closes at the same time as Seaton Down.
Pl. 27 shows the hoard as it was in the ground, while a summary is given in Table 6.7. From this it
can be seen that all but 129 coins (0.7 per cent of the total) were struck after 330, and the majority
were made before the weight reduction of 335.

that the Two Victories issue continued until 348. Most scholars now think it most likely that this issue started in 341,
on the cessation of the GLORIA EXERCITVS issue, but in RIC Kent believed that the issue did not start until c.347.
This is because he saw the Two Victories issue as having been struck in parallel with the sister issue struck at eastern
mints which included VOTA XV reverses for Constans: these started in 346−7. He adopted the date c.347−8 for the
VICTORIAE DD AVGGQ NN coinage without explicitly explaining this. However, the dating of the imperial Vota in
the 4th century is notoriously difficult and most scholars prefer not to have a six year gap in bronze coin production
and believe the issue dates to 341−8.

The coinage of this period is very uniform, with the nummus dominating: the hoards contain 894
radiates (0.44 per cent) and 15 denarii. No hoards contain the new silver miliarenses or siliquae,22

This period is the era of Constantine’s sons and his nephew Julian, from 337–64, interrupted by
the usurpation of Magnentius (350–3). There was a major reform of the bronze coinage in 348,
with the introduction of the FEL TEMP REPARATIO reverse in three denominations (weighing 5.26
g, 4.25 g and 2.4 g) .24 However, this time the old nummi do not seem to have been recalled. After
348, the coinage followed its usual pattern in the later Empire: within two years the two smaller
denominations ceased to be produced while the largest was progressively reduced in size in c.353
and 355, by which point it weighed no more than 2.26 g. In 350 in the west Magnentius had intro-
duced a new larger denomination with a large Chi-Rho weighing 8.3 g (it was rapidly reduced),
and a second denomination of about 5 g, soon being reduced to 4.6 g and then 4.2 g. 25 In 358
the FEL TEMP REPARATIO reverse was replaced with a new one, SPES REI PVBLICE, weighing 1.96
g. In 360 Julian became emperor in the west, and sole emperor from 361. He introduced another
reform, with a large denomination of 9 g and a smaller one of 2.9 g.; his nummi were replaced by
the Valentinianic nummus in 364. The bronze coins of Julian are not common in Britain, but the

FEL TEMP REPARATIO issues are and, as with earlier periods, the later lighter-weight coins appear
to have circulated alongside the earlier heavier issues.

The Coleshill hoard (no. 2466, table 6.8) serves as an example of a bronze hoard of this period.
The latest coins date to the very end of Magnentius’s reign in 353, and one can see how mixed
the coinage stock of this period is: there are 110 coins of the GLORIA EXERCITVS (2 standards)
issue of 330–5 and the largest single element of the hoard consists of 1,800 GLORIA EXERCITVS
and VICTORIAE DD AVGGQ NN coins of the lower standard of 1.8 g, issued from 335–48. There is
then a group of 503 coins of the new FEL TEMP REPARATIO coinage (of all three denominations),
followed by 766 coins of Magnentius.
The precious metal coinages enjoyed greater stability at this time. The gold solidus continued to
be struck to a weight of 4.4 g, although it was debased towards the end of Constantius’s reign and
under Julian.26 There was an increase in production during the 350s, which could have been related
to the discovery of new sources of metal, as analyses have shown that the gold contained traces of
platinum for the first time in this period.27 Silver miliarenses (fig. 6.4) and siliquae continued to be
produced to a high fineness and the main change was that in c.357 Constantius reduced the weight
of the siliqua from 3.1 g to 2.0 g (fig. 6.5). 28 This coincided with a great increase in production of
these coins.
Although there are only two hoards with gold coins and eight with silver coins in Period 16,29 the
single finds of siliquae recorded by PAS show that the reduced-weight coins of c.357–64 were in fact
present in Britain in significant quantities (see below).30

(e) Period 19, 364–78 (96 hoards, adjusted to 122; 19,241 records on PAS database, map 25)
95 hoards, 18,712 coins, average. size: 206 coins
Largest hoard: Manchester (no. 2611) 1,663 coins

Siliquae/miliarenses: 3,029 coins in 22 hoards
Nummi: 15,370 coins in 75 hoards
In 364 Valentinian I became emperor and immediately reformed the nummus, introducing a single
denomination that weighed c.2.5 g. This coin was produced in considerable quantities over the next
fifteen years: indeed these coins are second in frequency among British finds only to the GLORIA
EXERCITVS issues of 330–41. In addition, Valentinian abandoned Julian’s experiment with adding
silver to the coinage alloy and from this time onwards the nummus was a coin made of pure copper.

THE FOURTH AND FIFTH CENTURIES (AD 296–498) 107

Valentinian’s nummi were not, however, hoarded in great quantities: tables 6.1 and 6.2 show that
there were 18,712 nummi of 364–78 from hoards compared with 203,587 coins of 330–48; in con-
trast there were 30,222 nummi of 330–48 recorded by PAS and 19,241 of 364–78. The largest nummus
hoard of period 19 only contains 1,663 coins (Manchester, no. 2611), whereas there are 27 larger
hoards of nummi from period 17. There is no ready explanation for this, but one feature of this
period is the increasing importance of gold and silver issues among the stock of coins being hoarded.
The bronze coinage of this period does seem to have become quite homogeneous, although earlier
issues are not completely excluded. Table 6.7 is a summary of one of the largest nummus hoards of
this period, from King’s Langley (4 radiates and 1546 nummi; the latest coins are 57 specimens of
Arles of 375–8).

From this it can be seen that while the earlier coins are not completely absent (they account for
nine per cent of the hoard), 91 per cent of the coins in the hoard come from period 17.
Although the number of hoards with nummi of period 17 might be low relative to the size of the
issue, this is a period which saw a large increase in the number of gold and silver hoards. There are
seven hoards that contain a total of 25 solidi, while 22 hoards contain 3,029 miliarenses and siliquae.
The circulation of silver will be discussed below (pp. 110–18) and in chapter 7.31

(f) Period 20, 378–88 (37 hoards, adjusted to 50; 828 records on PAS database, map 26)

Radiates: 19 coins in 5 hoards
Siliquae/miliarenses: 1686 coins in 24 hoards
Nummi: 4,066 coins in 12 hoards
This period, covering ten years from the death of Valens in 378 to the ending of Magnus Maximus’s
usurpation in 388, is an intermediate time between the previous period 19, during which great
number of nummi had been struck, although not hoarded to an equivalent extent, and period 21,
from 388 to 402, which saw the last regular supplies of large numbers of coins in all three metals
to Britain. It can be divided into two halves, (a) from 378–83, before Magnus Maximus’s usurpa-
tion and (b) 383–88, the reign of Magnus Maximus, who controlled the western provinces and was
defeated by Theodosius in 388.
The Valentinianic nummus of 2.5 g continued to be struck in 378–83, while a new larger denomination
weighing c.5.3 g was introduced, along with a small coin of c.1.5 g.32 Maximus continued these three
denominations. However, these coins are rare in Britain: only 605 bronze coins of all denominations

31
I have discussed the precious-metal hoards of this period in general in Bland 1997, the gold hoards in Bland and
Loriot 2010, 75−83 and the silver hoards and single finds in Bland, Moorhead and Walton 2013.

108 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

of this period have been recorded by PAS, compared with 18,776 of period 17. This comparative
scarcity of coins in circulation is reflected in the low number of hoards: there are only 37 hoards
in all from this period, the lowest number per year since 296–317, and only ten of these 37 hoards
contain nummi. As an example of a bronze hoard of this period Table 6.8 is a summary of the com-
position of the Wiveliscombe hoard, containing 10 radiates and 1129 nummi and closing with 2
coins of Flavius Victor of 387–8.

What can be seen from this is that the new denominations introduced in 378 circulated alongside
the prolific issues of 364–78. This is not surprising given that coins continued to be struck on the
Valentinianic standard of c.2.5 g.
Gold and silver hoards became increasingly common in this period: six hoards contained a total of
solidi and 24 hoards had a total of 1,686 miliarenses and siliquae. For more details see below.

Siliquae/miliarenses: 19,123 coins in 117 hoards
Nummi: 57,366 in 127 hoards
Period 21, from 388 to 402, the year in which the western emperor, Honorius, moved his court
from Milan to Ravenna and stopped striking coins at Milan, is the last period during which the
Roman mints kept Britain regularly supplied with new issues of coins in all three metals. While
gold and silver continued to come into Britain until Constantine III’s reign in 407–11, bronze coins
almost totally stopped being supplied to the province after 402.33
The only bronze denomination that survived in this period was the small AE4 weighing about 1.5
g, the two larger denominations having ceased to be made in the west after the end of Magnus
Maximus’s reign in 388. The AE4 coin did find its way into British hoards in large numbers: 127 of
the 236 hoards of this period contained a total of 57,366 nummi (but only a few of those were issues
of period 21). The PAS data gives a better idea of the volume of bronze coinage entering Britain at
this time: there are 1907 nummi of period 21 on the PAS database, rather more than the 605 nummi
of period 20, but many fewer than the 18,776 coins of 364–78 (period 19).34
The largest hoard of bronze of this period is Bishops Cannings (no. 2963), with 5,837 nummi, as
well as 1 solidus, 7 miliarenses and 1,563 siliquae (together with items of jewellery). Like so many

34
We need to enter a health warning as regards the hoards of bronze coins of this period. These AE4 nummi are of the
smallest module, normally poorly struck and with the name of the emperor and the mint mark very hard to read. The
bronze hoards of this period are not normally as well described as the gold and silver hoards. However, even with that
qualification, there is a very definite spike in the number of hoards that end with these issues.

hoards, it closes in 402. The hoard is summarised in Table 6.11. Of the 5,196 identifiable nummi
in Bishops Cannings, 3,609 date to periods 20 and 21 (60.87 per cent), showing that considerable
numbers of bronze coins of this period did enter Britain.

This period lasts from 402 to 445, but in fact all 18 British hoards of this period close between
402 and 407–8, the first year of Constantine III’s reign. Coin circulation is now dominated by pre-
cious-metal coins: 14 hoards contain solidi, while eight contain siliquae or miliarenses and only four
have nummi. For the precious-metal hoards see below.
As we have noted, bronze coins later than 402 are extremely rare in Britain (there are 13 recorded
by PAS),35 and no hoards of bronze coins were known until a small group of eight nummi was dis-
covered at Whittington in Northumberland, just about one mile north of Hadrian’s Wall, in 2007.36
This contained a GLORIA ROMANORVM three emperors type which is dateable to 402–06 (fig. 6.3).
This hoard changed our perceptions of the date of the abandonment of Hadrian’s Wall.

There are only three hoards of this period, the Patching hoard of 23 solidi and 27 siliquae and other
precious-metal objects (no. 3036) to 461–70; 1 ‘brass coin’ and three siliquae (2 of Valentinian III
and 1 of Anthemius, ad 467–72) found in a burial at Chatham Lines (no. 3036A) and Oxborough
(no. 3037), which has two solidi and a denarius to 475–6, although these coins were found in an
Anglo-Saxon cemetery and may represent a grave-burial rather than a hoard. No nummi have been
found in hoards of this period. Patching and Oxborough are discussed below (p. 118).

6.4. Gold and silver hoards

Gold
We have already seen (pl. 23), that for the first half of the fourth century gold and silver coins were
almost totally absent from British hoards and are extremely rare as single finds. Gold coins appear
more frequently in hoards after 364; after 402, when the regular supply of coinage to Britain ceases,
gold, along with silver coins totally dominate coin circulation.
I have discussed the circulation of gold coinage in Britain, including hoards, elsewhere37 and will
not repeat the information given there here. Hoards containing gold coins peak in the later 4th
century, from 364 to 408. There are 49 hoards that contain gold coins dating to before 296 and
61 that close between 296 and 408. More than half of these 4th century hoards (33) have coins of
other metals, generally silver, and many also include items of jewellery or plate (chapter 7).
While gold coins never amounted to a major element of the total stock of coins being hoarded
(there are 1,826 solidi out of a total of 497,951 coins, or 0.4 per cent), they do amount to a very sig-
nificant proportion of the total value of money that was hoarded.38 According to Depeyrot, a solidus
of the period 364–402 would be worth 80 siliquae or 2,880 nummi of the GLORIA ROMANORVM/
SECVRITAS REI PVBLICAE issue of 364–78.39 On this basis the 1,826 solidi found in British hoards
would be the equivalent of 146,080 siliquae (there are 43,641 siliquae and miliarenses in our hoards)
or 5,258,880 nummi (there are 412,508 nummi in our hoards).
Silver
In 323–5 Constantine I introduced new denominations of high-quality silver coins which are
known today as siliquae and miliarenses.40 However, finds of these denominations are rare in his

reign and none are known from Britain. Production increased under Constantine’s sons, after 337
(two miliarenses and ten siliquae of this period have been recorded by PAS: table 6.11), but siliquae
and miliarenses issued before c.357 are only found in Britain in small quantities. In c.35741 the sili-
qua was reduced in weight from c.3.1 g to c.2 g and this seems to have resulted in a great increase
in the production of these coins.42
From c.357 until 402, when the mint of Milan was closed, silver coins form a substantial compo-
nent of British hoards (table 6.13). They account for 1.32 per cent of all coins in hoards closing
in 348–64, 16.2 per cent in hoards of 364–78, 29.1 per cent in hoards of 378–88, to 24.8 per cent
in hoards of 388–402 and 94.2 per cent in hoards of 402–45 (in fact all these hoards close in 408).

TABLE 6.13. Percentage of silver coins in total number of coins in hoards of Periods 18–23

However, it should be remembered that these figures reflect how many out of the total number
of coins in hoards that close in period 18 etc. are silver; this is not the same as how many silver
coins there are of period 18 etc. Table 6.14 takes two of the largest hoards of silver coins, Bishops
Cannings and Hoxne and analyses how many silver coins there are of each period in each of these
hoards.
Hoxne has a higher proportion of siliquae of 388-402 and this, combined with the fact that it has
eight coins struck between 402 and 408, whereas Bishops Cannings has none, suggests that Hoxne
was buried later, perhaps as late as the 420s, whereas Bishops Cannings was buried shortly after 402.

There is a divergence between the pattern of silver coins from hoards and the stray finds recorded
by PAS (table 6.15). 43 Over a third (36.2 per cent) of the 1,739 coins recorded by the Scheme date
to Period 18 (table 6.15), whereas only 11.5 per cent of the coins in the Bishops Cannings hoard
and 8.9 per cent of those in Hoxne come from this period. Clearly the frequency of these coins in
hoards is not directly related to the numbers actually in circulation in Britain (although of course

weighing c.5.2 g and c.4.2 g respectively. All the examples recorded by PAS are light miliarenses. We do not know whether
the names given for these denominations were those used by the Romans, but they have been hallowed by long usage.
41
The date when the siliqua was reduced in weight is not known for certain: dates between 355 and 358 have been
suggested. See Bland, Moorhead and Walton 2013, 117, n. 10, where it was concluded that 357 was most likely.

some of the single finds of c.357–64 recorded by PAS could represent later losses). It seems that
because the closing dates of the hoards that contain silver coins are not evenly spread out over the
period c.357–408, but cluster strongly in the last decade of that period, they contain a larger pro-
portion of later issues. The PAS finds therefore give a better idea of the relatively frequency of siliqua
issues from c.357 to 408, and they show that the coins of Constantius and Julian are more common
than the later issues that occur more frequently in hoards.44

Both the precious metal and the bronze hoards peak in the period from 395 to 402. The mint of
Milan issued gold solidi and silver siliquae in great quantities in this period: 367 of the 580 solidi in
the Hoxne treasure belong to these years (fig. 6.6) and 4,624 of the 14,547 siliquae (fig. 6.7). These
issues came to a sudden end in 402 when Honorius moved the Comitatensian mint from Milan,
by then increasingly exposed to barbarian raids across the Alps, to the safer location of Ravenna.
The great concentration of hoards that close with these issues has no other parallels in the Roman
period except for the radiate issues of the period 274−96 (chapter 5).

THE FOURTH AND FIFTH CENTURIES (AD 296–498) 113

Of course it is another matter when the hoards that close with issues of 402 would have been
buried in the ground, given that no more silver or bronze coins entered Britain in any significant
quantities after that date. Discussions of the date of hoarding of the silver hoards normally turn to
a discussion of the date at which siliquae were clipped (fig. 6.8 and 6.9).45 This seems to have been
a gradual process. The first steps at clipping seem to have occurred in the late 380s and 390s, but it
does seem clear that the more extreme level of clipping – as seen in fig. 6.9 – probably only started
after the mint stopped supplying new issues in 402.
At the same time we find a significant number of contemporary copies
of siliquae (fig. 6.10): between about three and eight per cent of coins in
hoards are imitations,46 while eight per cent of the single finds recorded
by PAS were copies.47 Analyses have shown that these coins were made of
good silver,48 and it seems possible that they were made after the official
Figs. 6.8 and 6.9. Un- issues had dried up in 402.
clipped and clipped siliquae We have no way of knowing exactly how long siliquae continued to
of Honorius, ad 395–402
circulate after 402, but most of those who have considered the problem
believe it could have been for twenty or thirty years, based on a study of
clipping and wear.
After the mint of Milan closed in 402 gold solidi continue to be struck
in some quantity at Ravenna, Rome (fig. 6.11) and Aquileia until 408
and these regularly occur in hoards, while Constantine III, governor of
Britain who declared himself emperor in 407 and then advanced into
Fig. 6.10. Contemporary
Gaul to assert his claim, also struck siliquae at the start of his reign which
copies of siliquae of Honori- are found in Britain (fig. 6.12). With the exception of a very few later
us (British Museum) outliers,49 these are the latest silver coins that occur in Britain.

The Hoxne Treasure


I will now look in more detail at one hoard of this period, the great
Hoxne treasure which contained 580 gold, 14,658 silver and 24
bronze coins (pl. 28), besides 200 items of gold and silver jewellery
and table-ware.50 The discovery of this hoard in 1992 transformed
our perception of late Roman coin circulation in Britain, in the
same way that other very large hoards have, such as Cuerdale
for the tenth century, or Tutbury for the 14th century. Sixty-one Fig. 6.11. Solidus of Honorius
hoards containing gold coins of the period, 296–408 are known from Rome, ad 404–8
from Britain and these have a total of 1,826 solidi; Hoxne has 580.
It is the same with silver: 180 hoards from Britain contain 43,641
silver coins; Hoxne adds another 14,658.

The Hoxne hoard clearly belonged to a wealthy family – quite possibly a family that owned land in
several different provinces of the Roman Empire. It was the equivalent of about three years’ salary
for a provincial governor. Some of objects are inscribed with personal names, and most importantly
there are two sets with the name Aur[elius] Ursicinus (pl. 29). Seven different names are inscribed
on various objects in the hoard, but the name of Aurelius Ursicinus appears much more frequently
than any others and it seems likely that he was at one time the owner of the hoard. So we come
closer to learning the identity of the owner of this hoard than any other find from Roman Britain,
but unfortunately we cannot identify this Ursicinus with any of the people of this name listed in
the Prosopography of the Later Roman Empire since they all have the first name Flavius rather than
Aurelius.51
Several other objects in the Hoxne treasure have personal names and these include interesting links
with named objects in other late Roman treasures from East Anglia, including Water Newton (p. 19
and pl. 5) and Mildenhall.

Eric Lawes, who discovered the Hoxne hoard with a metal detector, reported his find very promptly
and archaeologists from the Suffolk Archaeological Unit excavated the find the day after the dis-
covery (fig. 6.13).
Figs 6.14–6.15 show a plan of the site and, on the right, of the immediate findspot of the hoard. The
only recognizable feature is a ditch.
Fig. 6.16 is a view of the findspot today. The most obvious point about it is that it is an almost fea-
tureless field and there is nothing in the landscape to suggest why the hoarder might have chosen
to bury his wealth there.
The context of this extraordinary find remains enigmatic. Fig. 6.17 shows Roman East Anglia:
no trace of Roman occupation is known from the immediate area where the treasure was found,
although the Roman road from Colchester to Caistor St Edmunds is only a mile away and two miles
away, at Scole, there is a small Roman settlement on that road.
There is a record of a single solidus of Honorius found at Hoxne in 1733,52 while there is another
record of a hoard of over 600 gold coins of emperors from Valentinian I to Honorius and Constantine
III (very similar in fact to the Hoxne solidi) found at the neighbouring village of Eye in about 1780.53
Although local records suggest that the find-spots were nearly four miles apart, it remains a consid-
erable coincidence that two hoards containing over 500 solidi of the same period should have been
buried so relatively close to each other and it seems at least possible that they might form two parts

of the same deposit. If this is correct, then we may speculate that the owners of the hoard possessed
a large estate and buried their wealth across different parts of it. And Hoxne lies in an area which
is very rich in late Roman hoards such as Thetford,54 Mildenhall,55 and Water Newton (fig. 6.17,
pl. 5).56
So, the hoard of 159 gold solidi of exactly the same period as those in Hoxne found at Sandridge
near St Albans in 2012 (pl. 30, no. 3031) would have been the largest hoard of late Roman gold
coins from Britain if it had been found 20 years earlier, but it is overshadowed by Hoxne.

118 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

A new hoard always has the potential to revise our understanding of coin circulation. One such
was the hoard from Patching in West Sussex found by two detector users in 1997 (pl. 31 and table
6.18). It consists of 23 gold solidi, 27 silver siliquae, two gold rings and 54 pieces of silver scrap.57
This find pushes the date of the latest known hoard of Roman coins from Britain forward by more
than 50 years from about ad 408 to the 460s, as it contained a coin of Libius Severus (ad 461–65),
besides some twenty other coins that are all later than 410. Is this hoard the exception that proves
the rule or does it completely change the previously-held orthodoxy that Roman coins ceased to
enter Britain after the reign of Constantine III? We now have much more data on the number of
gold coins issues after ad 408 that occur in Britain,58 as well as on bronze coins,59 and this has shown
that we need to take a more nuanced view of the cessation of coin supply to Britain, as later issues
are found in small numbers. However, post–408 issues found in Britain probably came here through
small-scale trade, or were brought here by individuals coming to Britain from the Continent and it
is still clear that official coin supply of new issues to Britain did end in ad 408.

6.5 Geographical distribution

Maps 21–29 show the geographical distribution of hoards from 296 to 491 by Reece period: the PAS
finds are shown as pale dots and the precious-metal hoards are shown with stars. Map 30 shows all
precious-metal hoards.
In most periods there is a wide distribution across England and Wales, but there are some unusual
features. There is, for example, a concentration on both sides of the Severn estuary, particularly
in periods 17 and 18 (330–64). Two areas which produce more hoards than might be expected,
because they lie outside the ‘core’ of Roman Britain are north Wales and Cornwall, although these
are not focused on a particular period, as there are examples from both areas for all periods from
296 to 402. There are many hoards from Isle of Wight in period 21 (388–402) and a few from before.
In period 21 there are significant numbers of both precious-metal and bronze hoards, and these
seem to cluster in different areas, with the gold and silver finds concentrated in Yorkshire, East
Anglia and Wiltshire and Dorset and the bronze hoards around the Severn. The latest finds, from
periods 22 and 23 (402–91), retreat to the south and east of Britain, with two outliers in Yorkshire
and one from Hadrian’s Wall (maps 28–29).

6.6. Conclusions

Recoinages
It is generally considered that the most salient feature of the Roman base metal and bronze coinage
in the late period – from the late third century to the end of the fourth – is the periodic pattern
of recoinages, involving the calling in of old lightweight, debased issues and their replacement
with new coins, generally heavier and or of better alloy. It is further assumed that the exchange
rate between the old and new coins was very unfavourable. In some cases these recoinages were
accompanied by régime change (e.g., 274 and 296), but not always (e.g., 317, 348 and 364).
Such a pattern cannot easily be detected in studying site finds or the stray finds recorded by PAS;
hoards, however, should provide evidence for it. In 6.2 (pp. 99–100) I summarised the main recoin-
ages in the 4th century. In 274, Aurelian’s reform of the coinage seems to have been accompanied
by the demonetisation of the old debased radiates of the Gallic Empire: this was not wholly success-
ful and in Britain at least the widespread unofficial striking of small copies of radiates, the so-called
‘barbarous radiates’, is thought to have been a reaction to the introduction of the new aureliani,
which circulated in Britain in much smaller number than the old coins (chapter 4).
In 296, the defeat of Allectus, who was still striking radiates, by Constantius, was accompanied by
the replacement of the radiate with the nummus which had recently been introduced in the rest of
the Empire. Traditionally this is thought to have marked a total break in the coinage and that the
new nummi completely replaced radiates. In fact, however, there are a few hoards of the first twenty
years after the reform that combine significant numbers of the old and new coins, although after
317 this seems to have stopped. However, small numbers of radiates remained in circulation in
Britain and thus available for hoarding to the very end of the fourth century. The recoinage of 317
also seems to have led to a systematic removal of the earlier issues.
In contrast, the recoinages of 348 and later, which were not accompanied by political change, had
a less clearcut effect on the circulation of nummi, as many hoards from that time onwards have
substantial numbers of the old and new coins.
Gold and silver
The precious-metal coins followed a different rhythm: by and large, their weight and fineness
changed very little during this period. We have seen how the reduction in weight of the siliqua in
c.357 seems to have been the occasion for a great increase in the production of these coins. So far
as we know, both the silver content of both miliarenses and siliquae remained high throughout the
period, and they did not suffer from the debasement that had plagued the silver coinage in the first
three centuries ad.60
Although the gold coinage appeared to remain completely stable once Constantine had introduced
the solidus in c.323, remaining at a weight of 4.4 g and a gold standard of 99 per cent pure for several
centuries, there was in fact a debasement in the 350s and early 360s, when the purity of the coinage
metal was debased by up to 5 per cent.61 In 367 Valentinian restored the fineness of the coinage to
99 per cent and advertised the fact by adding the letters OB (for obryziacum, ‘refined gold’). Like
the reduction in weight of the siliqua, this reform seems to have led to an increase in production
and I have noted elsewhere that the issues of 367–78 are present in high numbers in British finds.62
In pl. 23 we saw how gold and silver coins became an increasingly large component of that part of
the circulating currency that was hoarded from 364, so that after 402, when new supplies of nummi
cease to enter Britain, they become the chief element of hoards. It is interesting that this change
occurs exactly at the time when the nummus became a pure bronze coin and there was no longer
any silver added to the alloy. In chapters 3 and 4 we saw how for the first two and half centuries
the majority of hoards were of silver denarii and only a relatively small proportion of hoards were

60
The argenteus, the silver coin introduced by Diocletian in 294 and struck until c.310, also enjoyed a stable weight
(3.1 g) and fineness (92%). However, as we have seen, these coins hardly seem to have circulated in Britain.

of bronze coins (pl. 15 and 16). Base silver and bronze coins only dominate hoards after 260 when
the radiate coinage became so debased; and this continued into the first half of the fourth century.
So in a sense the greater number of gold and silver coins in hoards of 364 to the end of the fifth
century is really just restoring the normal status quo, where most hoards are stories of wealth and
predominantly composed of the more valuable coins.63

63
Of course there are always exceptions such as the Whittington hoard of 9 nummi (above, fig. 6.3 and table 6.12):
this may represent the contents of a purse.
CHAPTER 7

LATE ROMAN GOLD AND SILVER HOARDS


FROM BRITAIN AND BEYOND

7.1. Introduction

The most salient feature about late Roman precious-metal hoards from Britain is just how much
Britain stands out in the period between 364 and 408, especially as regards the silver hoards. The
coins issued during these years, siliquae and miliarenses, were struck at mints across the Empire and
occur as single finds throughout the Roman world,1 but hoarding them (or at least not recovering
hoards of them) seems to be a characteristic of Britain. There is no other period when the hoarding
pattern from Britain is so different from that of the rest of the Empire. There is an extraordinarily
rich concentration of hoards of silver coins of this period from Britain, including, most famously,
the great Hoxne hoard from Suffolk, which is by far the largest silver coin hoard of this period from
anywhere in the Roman Empire (pp. 113–17). Map 30 shows the distribution of all late Roman
precious-metal hoards from Britain.
In 1997 I published a paper which listed 419 gold and silver hoards of the period from 300 to 700
ad from across the Roman world and from beyond the frontiers in Scandinavia, Germany and to
the north of the Danube frontier.2 A summary by metal is shown in pl. 32.
There were 249 hoards of gold coins, 44 mixed hoards of gold and silver and 126 of silver coins. As
regards the gold hoards, Britain (the uppermost column) is well represented but does not particu-
larly stand out: there are 15 finds, compared with 164 from the rest of the Empire (central column)
and 70 from outside the Empire (bottom column). But if we look at the silver hoards the picture is
completely different: there are 73 hoards from Britain and only 25 from the rest of the Empire (and
another 28 from outside the Empire), while all the British finds (with the exception of the Patching
hoard: pl. 31) are concentrated in the fifty-year period between ad 360 and 408.3

7.2. Previous discussions of late Roman precious-metal coin hoards from


Britain

This phenomenon has been noted by numismatists since Mommsen,4 but he did not suggest any
reason for it, and no one since has offered a truly convincing explanation, as King noted over thirty
years ago: ‘It is not at all clear, for example, why Britain should be so rich in silver hoards datable
by their contents to approximately 380 to 410.’5 Evans suggested that there may be a link between
the hoards of siliquae and silver mines in Britain, and in support of this he cited a Roman lead
pig from Charterhouse in Mendip with the inscription EX ARG, denoting that the silver has been
extracted from the lead.6 This suggestion was also taken up by Sutherland.7 Twenty-seven lead pigs

For example, Bland 1997, table 3 on p. 41 (using data from Reece 1973), shows that siliquae circulated in Germany,
Gaul and northern Italy.
2
Bland 1997; see also Hobbs 2006.
3
These figures are seventeen years out of date and there are now 66 hoards with gold coins and 194 with silver (34
hoards have coins of both metals) from Britain – more than double the number known in 1997. However, there will
be more finds from the Continent as well and I doubt that the proportions will be very different.

122 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

inscribed EX ARG are known from Britain, suggesting that silver was mined by the Romans,8 but
the Charterhouse in Mendip specimen belongs to the reign of Vespasian and no pigs are known
later than Marcus Aurelius, or possibly Septimius Severus, suggesting that mining of lead stopped
around the end of the second century ad. Furthermore, the evidence from elsewhere in the Empire
does not suggest a clear link between mining areas and significant concentrations of hoards or
single finds of coins.9
In 1932 Mattingly commented: ‘Gold hoards are very scarce; the beautiful Corbridge find [no. 2698]
is the one notable exception in modern times. Silver hoards, on the other hand, are amazingly
common – the miliarensia and siliquae of the late fourth century are in fact scarcely found hoarded
except here. The reason for this curious phenomenon is worth searching out. We might guess that
Britain was on a silver, rather than a gold standard, that silver hoards represent the buried wealth
of the Roman-Britons and that the rapacity of the tax-collector may have been as much feared
as the fury of the barbarian invader. It is doubtful if the map of these hoards will finally show
much evidence for barbarian invasion as operative at all.’10 J. W. E. Pearce, the great expert on
the coinage of this period and author of RIC IX, published many hoards of siliquae and discussed
the structure of siliqua hoards and the problem of clipping,11 but never addressed the wider issue
of why silver hoards are so common in Britain. O’Neil provided another perceptive discussion of
Theodosian hoards from Britain, both bronze and precious-metal coins, and notes how common
hoards of siliquae are from Britain and how rare they are from the Continent, without suggesting
an explanation.12
In an influential paper on late Roman gold and silver coin hoards from Britain, Carson noted the
theory that ‘the frequency of late Roman silver coin hoards in Britain in comparison with the rela-
tive paucity of such hoards in other areas’ is due to ‘more thorough recording in this country’, but
he dismissed it: in support of this he cited three hoards of siliquae from France, Italy and Romania.13
Instead he suggested the reason for the large number of siliqua hoards from Britain in the late
fourth century was the scarcity of gold coins of that period, noting that ‘only four substantial
gold hoards are on record [from Britain], Bredgar (Claudius I), Corbridge I (Antoninus Pius), Water
Newton (Constantius II and Constans), and Corbridge II (Maximus)’.14 However, the many hoards
and single finds of gold coins of the second half of the fourth century ad from Britain published
by Bland and Loriot in 2010 mean that this explanation is no longer tenable: in fig. 7.1 we have
seen that late Roman gold hoards are proportionately as common from Britain as from elsewhere
in the Empire, and there are 57 hoards containing gold coins with terminal dates between ad 350
and 475,15 while fig. 7.6 shows that single finds of gold coins from Britain have a late fourth-century
peak that is only a little lower than that in the first century ad.
In his discussion of this phenomenon in the publication of the Hoxne Treasure, Peter Guest noted
‘the answer to the problem raised by the quantity of hoards from late Roman Britain containing gold
and silver objects must therefore lie in the peculiarities of the hoard record in Britain, rather than
in the circulation patterns of precious metals [citing Bland 1997]. If this is right, the question arises
whether the unusual nature of the pattern in Britain is a consequence either of a greater frequency
of the burial of hoards there than on the Continent, or a lower frequency of retrieval. The answer

RIB II catalogues 70 inscribed lead pigs from Britain (2404.1–72). Of these, 23 originate from the Mendip mines,
3 from south Welsh mines, 3 from mines in Shropshire/Powys, 8 from Flintshire mines, 22 from Derbyshire mines,
4 from Yorkshire mines and 7 from other sources. Thirty-five have emperors’ names and these include Claudius I
(2), Nero (1), Vespasian (15), Nerva (1), Trajan (1), Hadrian (8), Antoninus Pius (3) and Marcus Aurelius (4). 27 are
inscribed EX ARG indicating that silver was being extracted from the lead.
9
Collingwood 1922, 82–3, also commented on the frequency of silver hoards from Britain of this period, noting that
the latest coins are on Constantine III (407–11), while on the Continent later issues are found; he did not, however,
suggest a reason.

LATE ROMAN GOLD AND SILVER HOARDS FROM BRITAIN AND BEYOND 123

seems to be that it is a combination of both: more hoards were originally buried in Britain and, as a
consequence, more were left the ground’.16 In conclusion Guest asked ‘is it possible that in Britain
hoards were buried without the intention of ever recovering them?’17 Other recent commentators
on coin circulation and hoarding in Britain have not directly addressed this question.18
This phenomenon has been largely ignored by historians who have written general accounts of
Roman Britain,19 including those who have written accounts of the end of the province.20 However,
some recent accounts pay greater attention to hoarding in this period: for example, Millett had a
brief discussion of late Roman hoards of plate and jewellery and suggests ‘their burial more likely
continues the earlier habit of burying rich objects for ritual purposes’,21 and Hobbs and Jackson’s
account of Roman Britain, which uses the British Museum’s collections as a starting point, discussed
many individual hoards.22 They noted: ‘The hoards indicate that a point was reached when it was
no longer deemed wise to keep hold of these objects, as being caught with them was potentially
dangerous. All these hoards were buried, probably for later recovery, although in some cases there
may have been a religious motive – the placing of material under ‘divine’ protection or ‘gifting’ to
the gods in the hope of salvation. The increasing vulnerability of the province to ‘barbarian’ attack
was no doubt a factor, but we should also consider the possibility of internal strife, which made the
wealthy feel insecure, particularly as the military presence significantly declined after the time of
Constantine III (ad 407–11).’23
Esmonde Cleary’s 1989 treatment of late Roman Britain included a detailed discussion of coin
circulation and hoarding in the fourth and early fifth centuries.24 He was aware of the dispropor-
tionate numbers of silver hoards from Britain, but did not suggest any reasons for this phenom-
enon. 25 Similarly in his treatment of late Roman Britain, de la Bédoyère had a chapter entitled
‘Treasure hoards and the end’ which contained this explanation for late Roman treasure hoards:
‘Hoarding by burial was the standard practical method of protecting valuables in the pre-modern
world. Although it increased during periods of uncertainty, hoarding occurred at all times and in all
places. Gold and silver provided the best medium for storing a large amount of wealth in a portable
form. In the normal course of events hoards were recovered in order to redisplay plate, and pay taxes
and other debts. The residue may then have been rehoarded, and perhaps added to, recovered and
so on. All that remain are the caches which at some point in the cycle were lost, forgotten about,
or whose owners were prevented from recovering them. Individual high-value items normally
only enter the archaeological record through casual loss, and for obvious reasons this was (and is)
extremely rare. As a result hoards are the most important source of surviving ancient treasure.’26
Noting the large number of silver hoards of this period, de la Bédoyère commented: ‘The prefer-
ence for silver in Britain may have been traditional and might explain Carausius’ enthusiasm a
century earlier for producing pure silver coinage.’27 In the most recent scholarly account of Roman
Britain David Mattingly noted: ‘The distribution of c.100 late Roman coin hoards found in Britain
is revealing of massive failure of elite groups in eastern England to retrieve their stored wealth.’28

124 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

One explanation that has been suggested by the current author is that there was a tradition in
Britain of saving and hoarding silver coins,29 and this was adopted, probably independently, by de
la Bédoyère and also by Guest, who cites Bland 1997.30 However, that begs as many questions as
it answers and it is worth considering the distribution of other silver artefacts of this period to see
whether that offers any insights into the pattern of the coin hoards.

7.3. Late Roman silver plate, ingots and brooches

Plate
Late Roman silver plate was manufactured and used throughout the Empire, and in 2006 Hobbs
recorded 46 hoards of the fourth and fifth centuries that contained silver plate and other objects
but excluded coins, while a further 28 hoards combined silver coins with precious-metal objects.31
A good summary of recent work on the subject is to be found in a volume arising from a conference
on the Traprain law treasure of hacksilber.32
Ingots
Silver ingots, in the shape of a double-axe, were made from around ad 300 to the early fifth cen-
tury.33 They bear makers’ stamps as a guarantee of purity (figs. 7.1 and 7.2). We know that from
the accession of Julian in 361, and very likely earlier, each legionary soldier received a donative on
the accession of a new emperor of five gold solidi and a pound of silver and these ingots, which
typically weigh a pound, almost certainly represent such donatives.34 One would, therefore, expect
these ingots to be found where soldiers are based.
Brooches
Another artefact type which also shows a similar distribution are late Roman crossbow brooches
(fig. 7.3). These have been studied by Swift, who concludes that they were worn by the military
and imperial officials.35 The brooches are concentrated along the Rhine and Danube frontiers with

LATE ROMAN GOLD AND SILVER HOARDS FROM BRITAIN AND BEYOND 125

a scattering across Britain and northern Gaul


with almost no examples in southern Gaul or
the Mediterranean provinces (fig. 7.5).
Distribution
The distribution of hoards containing silver plate
and silver ingots is summarized in Table 7.1 and
the chart in pl. 33 and mapped in fig. 7.4. With
very few exceptions, ingots are found along the
frontiers of the western Empire. In fact their dis-
tribution is clearly closely tied to the presence
of the military (with a few examples that passed
beyond the frontier into Ireland and Germany
– perhaps these were paid to the laeti, federate
troops recruited from peoples outside the Empire
in the late fourth century, who subsequently
took them home).36 Hoards containing silver
Fig. 7.3. Fourth-century crossbow brooch from near plate are slightly more widespread than ingots
Lichfield, Staffordshire (PAS database WMID-6C6B01) or hoards of silver coins, as there are five finds
from Italy and four from north Africa, but they
too show a strong bias to Britain and the Rhine
and Danube frontiers.
If we look at the hoards from outside Britain that contain silver coins, there are eighty in all, half
from within the Empire and half from without. These too have a concentration along the Rhine
and Danube frontiers of the Roman Empire, in Germany to the east of the Rhine and to the north of
the Danube frontier. The similarities between the distribution of crossbow brooches and of hoards
of silver coins and finds of ingots is striking, except for the fact that the brooches are not so con-
centrated in Britain and are more heavily concentrated along the frontier. Hoards of plate also
occur in Britain in some quantity and along the Rhine and Danube frontiers, but in contrast to the
ingots and crossbow brooches, they are also found in the Mediterranean provinces of Spain, Africa
and Italy. Guggisberg has shown very clearly how many categories of late Roman precious-metal
artefacts – Fidelity rings, Kaiserfibeln, gold medallions, silver vessels, ingots and so on were made by
the Emperor for use as donatives and given both to recipients within the Empire and also to peoples
beyond the frontier.37
The concentration of finds of silver ingots and other artefacts such as crossbow brooches and, to a
lesser extent, of silver plate in the frontier provinces of the western Roman provinces, might suggest
that the large numbers of late fourth-century hoards of silver coins in Britain reflect the substantial
military presence in the province. However, Britain does not have the same preponderance of finds
of these other artefacts as it has of hoards of siliquae.
In addition, it needs to be borne in mind that the army stationed in Britain in the late fourth century
was much smaller than that of the first and second centuries ad. The latest estimate of the number
of troops in Britain in the late fourth century, based on the information in the Notitia Dignitatum, is
that there were 5,000–6,000 comitatenses and no more than 12,500 limitanei;38 this compares with a
strength of 50,000 soldiers two centuries earlier.39 So perhaps we should look for an explanation in
the tradition of hoarding silver in Britain, although I do not find this totally satisfactory.

36
For another example of possible payments to laeti which occur outside the Empire (gold uniface medallions of the
Constantinian period) see Bland 2012b.
37
Guggisberg 2013.
38
Mattingly 2006, 238–9.
39
James 1984, followed by Esmonde Cleary 1989, 61–2 suggests a smaller number: no more than 12,000 men. Of
course the same shrinkage in the size of the army would have occurred along the Rhine and Danube frontiers.

7.4. Conclusions

In this period, as in the third century ad, Britain has a great concentration of hoards, while the
pattern of hoarding stands out from that found in the rest of the Empire. We still have no wholly
satisfactory explanations for the great concentration of hoards of radiates of 274−96 (chapter 5) or
of silver coins of c.357–c.408, but it is clear that Britain does have an exceptionally rich heritage
of hoards. In 1937 Sutherland was able to list 493 hoards of Roman coins from Britain;40 in this
volume, we are able to include 3,070 hoards with Roman coins and a further 355 hoards that just
have Iron Age coins.

CHECKLIST OF HOARDS

Scope

The checklist includes all hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins (down to the early Byzantine period)
from England and Wales catalogued by the Iron Age and Roman Coin Hoard (IARCH) project: these
include all finds reported to the end of 2014. This checklist also includes the following finds, which
were not included in the IARCH project:
(a) Hoards reported in 2015 (79);
(b) Hoards from Scotland (79),
(c) Ireland, the Republic (6) and Northern Ireland (4);
(d) and the Channel Islands (3). Note: Iron Age coin hoards from the Channel Islands, including
the Catillon II hoard, are not included.

Arrangement

The hoards are numbered 1–3424 and arranged chronologically by date of the latest coin, arranged
in Reece periods (see Table 1), which are shown as headings. bc and ad dates are added in Period 1,
but thereafter all dates are ad.
Hoards that can only be dated by ruler rather than the date of the issue are placed at the end of the
relevant reign.
Hoards with the same terminal date, are arranged (a) by country, (b) by county and (c) by location.
Hoard nos. 3042–3424 cannot be dated by their latest coin.
Some hoards that can be dated to broader periods than a single Reece period (eg hoards of Antonine,
radiates or Constantinian coins) are listed at the end of the latest Reece period to which they can
belong.
The checklist is divided into four sections:
(a) Iron and Roman hoards to ad 192;
(b) Hoards of ad 193–296;
(c) Hoards of ad 296–c.600;
(d) Hoards whose latest coins cannot be closely dated.
The other information recorded is as follows:
Location: normally the parish; other names by which the hoard has been known are also included,
followed by the county.
County:
(a) unitary authorities have been dealt with as follows: those carved out of shire counties
(Blackburn, Blackpool, Bournemouth, Brighton, Derby, Hull, Leicester, Medway, Milton
Keynes, Peterborough, Plymouth, Poole, Portsmouth, Southampton, Southend, Stoke on Trent,
Swindon, Telford, Thurrock and Torbay) have been included with their former counties.
(b) Bedfordshire, Berkshire and Cheshire, all of which are now subdivided into unitaries, are
retained as counties.
(c) Metropolitan unitaries have been brought together under Greater Manchester, Merseyside,
South and West Yorkshire, Teesside, Tyne and Wear, West Midlands.
130 COIN HOARDS AND HOARDING IN ROMAN BRITAIN AD 43–c.498

(d) However, Bristol, Bath and North East Somerset, Gloucestershire South, Somerset North appear
separately rather than under `Avon’. Lincolnshire, North and North East also appear separately
after Lincolnshire.
(e) For Scotland and Wales the current local authorities are followed.
Ruler: the latest ruler to be represented in the hoard.
Latest coin: the date of the latest coin in the hoard.
Reason: the basis on which the latest coin in the hoard can be dated. This can be:
(a) The date of issue of the latest coin (i.e., we know the type of the coin);
(b) the ruler;
(c) or the hoard is incomplete.
Other categories are:
(d) an accumulation of coins, which may not be a hoard;
(e) the latest coins are contemporary imitations;
(f) the coins are in poor cond(ition);
(g) the terminal date is unc(ertain)/disputed or
(h) unverified.
Qlty: a rating of the quality of the hoard publication adopted by the IARCH project.
1. Poor (simplistic statement of some details of hoard, e.g. report lists ‘a pot of gold coins’).
2. Fair (contents poorly recorded, i.e. in summary or only a portion recorded in full).
3. Good (list of coins is complete but catalogue falls below modern standard, i.e. does not allow
current standard references to be assigned, or without illustrations / images).
4. Excellent (full catalogue of coins with appropriate images).
