Fetching coin data
The hoard was placed inside a copper-alloy vessel inside a large grey earthenware vessel, which is broken by the plough.
The copper-alloy vessel contained the grave goods and coins. It showed signs of repairs on the body and the bottom in the form of small rivets and two circles of iron.
A forged iron human face mask measuring 28cm in width. Attached to the interior of the mask with copper-alloy studs, was a coat of mail decorated with silver fittings in the form of two swan-necks back to back.
A copper-alloy vessel in the shape of a female head. The hair was picked out as incised decoration.
A gilded copper-alloy wreath measuring 20cm in diameter. Its terminals end in bulges.
A gilded copper-alloy patera or cup.
Two copper-alloy strigils of the same design.
Three repoussé copper-alloy belt plates and buckles.
Two copper-alloy staples terminating in a 2cm capsule. '2 agrafes isolées en bronze terminées par une capsule de 2cm'
An iron spearhead
An iron arrowhead.
A flint knife of the solutréen type.
Fragment of an ivory or bone box.
72 glass beads
Two pairs of very corroded coin dies, one for striking coins on the go, measuring 19cm in length and one measuring 6cm in length for striking coins on an anvil. Traces of beading were visible on one of the dies, but it appears that they were deliberately defaced.
