Abstract
In about 1827 a small hoard of coins and jewellery was found whilst ploughing at Castle-thorpe, Buckinghamshire. The hoard consisted of a pair of silver bracelets, a silver ring with a cornelian intaglio showing Bonus Eventus, and silver and bronze coins, the latest of which belonged to the reigns of Antoninus Pius (138–161) and Verus (161–169). The hoard had been contained in a ‘small black urn’ which was not recovered at the time. During a recent detailed study of the jewellery, which is now in the British Museum, it was observed that the bracelets were inscribed.
