Message:: [QUOTE="Victor_Clark, post: 25543394, member: 10613"]Mildenhall Hoard of 1833 discovered in 1833. There were 1,286 coins from the 3rd century. One was a denarius of Caracalla and the rest were antoniniani from Valerian to Aurelian. [ATTACH=full]1636126[/ATTACH] the coins are in fairly rough condition, not surprising though because when they were discovered they were a "badly rusted mass of coins" the Probus was not part of the hoard; but was discovered nearby. the example below is interesting because it is not in RIC for the bust (head with slight drapery) but is in Göbl [ATTACH=full]1636127[/ATTACH] GallienusA.D. 264- 265Ӕ Antoninianus18x20mm     2.4gGALLIENVS AVG; radiate head left with slight drapery over right shoulder.IOVI CONSERVA; Jupiter stg. l.; holding thunderbolt and sceptre; at foot eagle; in left field S.RIC Vi Mediolanum 486 var.; Göbl 1037L Ibberton Hoard [ATTACH=full]1636128[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1636129[/ATTACH] The Carleton St Peter Hoard [ATTACH=full]1636130[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1636131[/ATTACH] Constantine IA.D. 323-419mm 3.5gCONSTANTINVS AVG; laureate head right.SARMATIA DEVICTA; Victory advancing r., holding trophy, palm branch, spurning captive std. on ground to r.; C in left fieldIn ex.
