Unlike other similar Roman hoards, the coins were discovered in a series of eight money bags – almost eight mini hoards in one – that are likely to have been deposited gradually over time. This small and beautifully illustrated book tells the story of this remarkable find, focussing on the discovery, scientific investigation, interpretation of the hoard, and the parallels and context in the Roman world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"buyingOptionNostosBadge_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tellAmazon_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"celwidget c-f\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"CardInstancerAjfOfAADA6_e8j8tUv37g\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"British Museum Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54150337003853,"sku":"9780714118260","price":3.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/9147\/6557\/files\/81HO11glxOL._SL1200.jpg?v=1782217926","url":"https:\/\/thebookbus.co.uk\/products\/the-beau-street-hoard","provider":"The Book Bus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
