Detectorist finds 10,000 Roman coins in Huntingdon hoard

A hoard of almost 10,000 Roman coins has been found in two pottery containers, nested inside each other "a bit like Russian dolls".

They were discovered by a metal detectorist in a field near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, in spring 2018.

All the 9,724 coins were made of base metal and were probably hidden at a time of turmoil in the wake of the 3rd Century breakaway empire.

The "muddy hoard" was taken to the British Museum for conservation.
