Abstract

Hoards of coins that include jewellery are uncommon in the middle ages. In England up to 1966 there were only three such hoards known. These are the twelfth-century hoard from Lark Hill, Worcester, which contained six rings; the hoard from Coventry of c. 1290–8 containing two silver ring brooches; and the Thame hoard deposited after 1457 and containing five rings. In 1966 the discovery of a hoard of gold coins and jewellery at Fishpool, Nottinghamshire, added a fourth hoard to this sequence.
