James Hawkesworth with part of his discovery (670 Roman silver coins in all) at Taunton, Somerset. The coins, which were miliarenses and siliquae had come from mints as far afield as Lyon, Arles, Rome and Constantinople and were buried in about AD 365. * ... Mystery surrounds how the hoard, one of the earliest from the fourth century ever found, came to be buried in the field near West Bagborough, Somerset, and was never recovered. West Somerset coroner Michael Rose found that the hoard, which Mr Hawkesworth found with a metal detector, was treasure belonging to the Crown and Mr Hawkesworth is expected to receive a proportion of the value as a finder's reward.
