This coin is from the Colkirk Hoard, found near Colkirk in Norfolk by a metal detectorist between 2020 and 2022. It comprised 432 Roman silver coins, mostly siliquae from Constantius II (AD 323-361) to Honorius (AD 393-423). Dating to the end of the Roman era in Britain this find and others represent a turbulent time for the Roman Empire and its citizens.
The hoard was declared Treasure and subsequently disclaimed then returned to the finder & landowner who chose to sell a significant part of the hoard via Silbury Coins. We have produced an information booklet, a copy of this will be sent with each coin and is also available online here. A detailed catalogue can also be viewed on the Portable Antiquities website here.
A rare & exciting opportunity to own a coin from a fully provenanced and researched treasure find.
