Beau Street Hoard to go on Tour
« on: September 07, 2014, 05:58:54 am »
From the BBC website:

"A hoard of nearly 18,000 silver Roman coins is to be taken on tour to help people see the "amazing" find, Bath and North East Somerset Council has said.

The Beau Street Hoard was unearthed by archaeologists in Bath in 2007 and is thought to be the fifth largest find of its kind in the UK.

Now, the coins - some of which date back as far as 32BC - will be touring the region this autumn.

Venues in Combe Hay, Weston-super-Mare, Southstoke and Priston will be visited."

I'd love to see this since I collect Denarii from that time period and am a big fan of British archaeology thanks to episodes of Time Team.
Collecting Deification Issues in all forms.
