HOXNE HOARD

The Hoxne Hoard was unearthed in 1992. It contained many types of precious objects, buried for safety at a time when Britain was passing out of Roman control. Jewellery and a variety of precious tableware were found alongside the approximately 15,000 gold, silver and bronze coins. The siliquae of fifteen different emperors are represented, from Constantine II (reigned AD 337-40) to Constantine III (reigned AD 407-8)
