A late Roman copper alloy nummi hoard (TBKA 'the Pewsey coin hoard') contained within a sooted grey-ware type jar. Total coins = 2384, deposited c. AD 348. Contents: Two base metal radiates and 2382 base metal nummi: Radiates: Claudius II (AD 268-70), 1; Tetricus I (AD 271-4), 1. Nummi: AD 317-24, (1 half nummus of Trier); AD 330s, (1 'Milvian Bridge' nummus fraction of Constantinople); AD 330-35, 171; AD 335-41, 911; AD 341-8, 1165; uncertain brockages, 2; uncertain/illegible, 42 (incl. 14 fused); irregular nummi 54Estimated coins: 3000. The vessel was buried in a small pit and covered with several large, roughly hewn limestone blocks. These are not local stones as the suface geology here is clay-with-flints.

Sixty-nine coins or parts thereof were collected by the finder, the rest remained in the vessel. Several vessel sherd, mostly the rim and the upper part of the vessel, were also recovered by the finder. The vessel is heavily sooted, showing that it was probably used as a domestic cooking vessel prior to be used as a container for the coins. The stone covering of the hoard suggests deliberate concealment; the stones may have been a marker however it is unclear if these would have been visible or if they too were buried. The hoard was stabilised in-situ then block lifted for excavation in the lab.

Most of the pit cut had been removed however a small amount of pit fill was recovered.
