Summary

The hoard comprised a copper-alloy vessel containing 931 radiates for which Bourriau provides a summary catalogue: Trebonianus Gallus - Tetricus I (AD 271-274). Atgier noted the presence of coins of Quintillus and Constantine but TAF believes this to be an error. The coins were acquired by the Bibliothèque Municipale de La Rochelle. The jug handle is in the Musée d'Orbigny.
