English: 67 gold staters and one quarter stater of Iron Age date.

Report by Ian Leins, of the British Museum follows:

Sixty-seven of the coins are uninscribed Iron Age gold coins of a type known as "South Ferriby" staters. These were struck in the Lincolnshire area, probably in the last decades of the first century BC. South Ferriby staters seem to have circulated quite widely and it is not uncommon for them to turn up in East Anglia, around the Fen edge and further afield. Nevertheless the present findspot lies beyond the main distribution of these coins. The sixty-eighth coin is a gold quarter stater of Cunobelin, who was a king in the Hertfordshire-Essex area in about AD 10-40.

The coins can be summarised as follows:

<tbody></tbody>

"South Ferriby" staters, common variety, ABC 1743	65
"South Ferriby" staters, "phallic type", ABC 1752	2
Cunobelin quarter stater, "wild type", ABC 2813	1
Total	68

Recommendation The above coins are all clearly more than 300 years old and are struck from an alloy that comprises well over 10% precious metal. Given the reported circumstances of discovery and the date and type of the coins, there is no reason to suppose that they represent anything other than a single hoard at the point of their deposition. It should be noted that coins of Cunobelin are very common and it is not unusual for them to be found amongst hoards found across Southern Britain.
