The hoard ranges from Julian II to Honorius and was probably deposited around AD 410, when Roman rule in Britain was crumbling, leaving the province to defend itself from increasing Germanic and Irish attacks. In accordance with U.K. Treasure Laws, the hoard was taken intact to the British Museum, where the coins were cleaned and catalogued.</p><p><br /></p><p>Glory to the Emperor, victorious and Divine!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]534434[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
