The Deepdale Hoard is a Roman coin hoard found in Deepdale (near Barton-upon-Humber) in North Lincolnshire in 1979. It consisted of 260 silver siliquae and one gold solidus.[1]
The initial discovery of the hoard was on 11 May 1979, with further coins found over the next two years.[2] The majority of the coins were found in a pot (2⁄3 of which survived[3]) while others were found scattered nearby. The coins were from the reigns of Constantius II to Honorius.[2]
The hoard has been split between a number of museums, including the British Museum, the North Lincolnshire Museum, and the East Riding of Yorkshire Council Museum Service.[4]
