Description

Metal detectorist find. The find spot was identified as being off St. Andrew's Close, Alresford. The finder had removed the coins from the site but had discarded an accompanying lead container (the coins were reported as being wrapped in lead). A site visit by staff of Colchester Museum confirmed that the area had been subjected to recent metal detecting. A search of the surrounding hedge failed to locate the lead container.
