2015 T591 Coin Hoard Ceramic Vessel |
||
| Description |
English: TAKEN TO THE BM, 4/9/15 449 Roman nummi and 23 pottery sherds belonging to the vessel that contained the coins. Treasure case no. 2015 T591.
The coins are copper alloy nummi ranging in date from the very last years of the 3rd century AD to the late AD 320s. The latest coins were struck in AD 327-8. Half of the coins in the hoard are from the London mint, whereas another quarter is from the Trier mint. On the whole, the chronological distribution of the coins is similar to that of hoards terminating in the second half of the AD 320s, before the nummus was reduced in weight in AD 330. The hoard contains a majority of coins dating to the period AD 317-324 (330 nummi) and a significant share of coins struck in the period AD 324-330 (95 nummi). The main peculiarity of the hoard lies in the presence of 24 earlier nummi issued in the period AD 294-317, whereas the reform of the coinage in AD 318 was generally accompanied by the demonetisation of earlier issues.
