In 2007 during an archaeological excavation in advance of a hotel
development situated 150 metres from the Roman Baths in Bath, a
Roman silver coin hoard was unearthed. This hoard was an
exceptional find, not only because of its size - 17,500 coins in
tota l - but also because of a number of unusual characteristics.
Unlike other similar Roman hoards, the coins were discovered in a
series of eight money bags - almost eight mini hoards in one - that
are likely to have been deposited gradually over time. This small
and beautifully illustrated book tells the story of this remarkable
find, focussing on the discovery, scientific investigation,
interpretation of the hoard, and the parallels and context in the
Roman world.
