382 APPENDIX— ROMAN-BRITISH 



They were all coated, more or less, with green oxide of copper. 

 Some fragments of the broken parts of the vases and a small 

 piece of the bottom of a Roman mortar were soon afterwards 

 found near the same spot, but nothing else was there dis- 

 covered. 



The coins, on examination, were found to be chiefly bronze, 

 varying from a size rather larger than a shilling to less than 

 sixpence, those of the same size being often of very unequal 

 thickness and weight. There were also a large number, prin- 

 cipally denarii, of or plated with the base metal called by 

 numismatologists "billon." Of the whole quantity, about 

 one third only have been cleaned ; the whole have now been 

 sorted (an operation which was not complete when this paper 

 was first prepared), and the result is as follows * : —
