Other PAS records associated with this hoard: CORN-7E8363; CORN-7E10F8

Parish: Restricted Access
District: Cornwall
County: Cornwall
Region: South West
Place known as: Lanlivery
Discovery method: Metal detector
Notes: 
The two coins reported here show obvious evidence of having been fused together and therefore must obviously be seen as constituting a single find. Furthermore, there is evidence that at least one other coin was fused together with these two coins, suggesting that this is not a complete hoard and that addenda to this hoard may appear in due course. This coin found adhered to another Republican denarius, 7E10F8. Two other Republican denarii have been found in Lanlivery, CORN-7F0291 (RRC 382/1b) and CORN-7EA410 (RRC 352/1b) c. 100-200m away [NB burnt condition of these coins very similar - part of same hoard?].



Penhallurick gives other coins from same fields (with PAS numbers) - including a group of first century bronze coins that could be considered part of the same find or another hoard.
