Fetching coin data
Roman Iron Age globular jar with everted rim. The coins were contained within two fairly well preserved leather bags, one containing 160 denarii and the other 150. (Holmes 2006, 2, fig. 2a.)
Fairly well preserved, one containing 160 denarii and the other 150. The leather is thinner and finer than that found in the first pot, and not vegetable-tanned, and the stitching is of better quality. Each bag was made from a rectangular strip stitched onto a circular base, sewn up at one side and tied at the top with a twisted leather cord. (Holmes 2006, 4, fig. 4)
