1 FOUR 18th 20th CENTURIES HOARD REPORTS By M. M. ARCHIBALD THE TADLEY FIND IN June 1963 twenty one gold coins were found by Christopher Forrest, a four year old child, in the garden of his home at 2, Winston Avenue, Tadley, Hampshire. The find was examined at the British Museum on 20th December 1963 and comprised sixteen guineas and five half-guineas dated from 1768 to The composition of the find and the condition of the coins suggested that they had been deposited in or shortly after 1801 and represented a sample of the gold coinage in circulation at that date. When the coins were produced at the coroner's inquest held on 3rd January 1964, the jury found that they had been accidentally lost or abandoned and that the owner or owners were now unknown. In accordance with this verdict the coins were handed over to William Forrest, the finder's father, as the owner of the land on which they were found. Since the verdict had not been one of treasure trove the British Museum had no control over the disposal of the coins. THE TADLEY FIND Guineas: 1768; 1773; 1774; 1776; 1777; 1779; 1781, (2); 1788; 1790, (2); 1791, (2); 1793; 1795, (2). Half-guineas: 1786; 1793; 1797; 1798; THE WISBECH HOARD The hoard was found on 20th March 1964 by John Petts during demolition work at 7, Ruby Place, Wisbech, Cambridgeshire. The coins had lain under the floorboards of an upstairs room of the cottage and were dislodged when the ceiling of the room below was being removed. The finder noticed a few rotted fragments of the container which appeared to have been a bag of sack-cloth or other coarsely woven material. A verdict of treasure trove was returned at the inquest held on 23rd April 1964 and the coins were sent to the British Museum for examination. The hoard comprised ninety-six sovereigns and one half-sovereign, the earliest coin being dated 1825 and the latest The earliest coins were worn but not excessively so. Despite their appearance, however, many of them were below the minimum current weight, four out of six of the sovereigns of George IV, all four of those of William IV and several of the early Victorian pieces failing to reach the required grains 1. Condition gradually improved until the closing coins of 1874 and 1875 which were in almost mint state. A particularly well-preserved sovereign of 1869 was clearly an accidental exception and the peak of representation reached in 1864 is explained by the larger than normal issues of sovereigns in that and immediately preceding years 2. i Mint Report 1889, Appendix No. XV, p. 95 ff. The report estimated that sovereigns became under current weight after about nineteen years and half sovereigns after about nine years. 2 Mint Report figures for sovereigns issued 1858, 803,234; 1859, 1,547,603; 1860, 2,555, , 7,624,736; 1862, 7,836,413; 1863, 5,921, , 8,656,352; 1865, 1,450,238.
2 FOUR 18TH-20TH CENTURIES HOARD REPORTS 157 The find therefore did not show any of the anomalies of condition or representation which might have been expected had its contents been accumulated steadily over a period of years or laid aside on two or more separate occasions. The general impression of the hoard was that it represented a group of coins withdrawn from circulation in The presence of only one half-sovereign supported this view and may even suggest that the hoarder acquired the money as an exceptional payment in a lump sum. Fifteen of the sovereigns in the hoard were struck at Australian mints. In 1863 and 1866 acts had been passed empowering the Queen to authorise as legal tender in the United Kingdom gold coins struck at colonial branch mints. The Mint Report of 1875 stated that 1,972,000 and 2,726,000 in Australian gold coins were sent into the Bank of England in 1874 and 1875 respectively and that as a result of these large numbers the Royal Mint, London, did not require to strike any gold between September 1874 and November It is not surprising therefore that a number of Australian sovereigns should be present in a British hoard deposited in 1875 nor, in particular, that one of them should be the latest coin in it. Coins from the hoard were acquired by the British Museum, the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, and the Peterborough Museum as listed beiow. In accordance with treasure trove procedure the remainder of the hoard was disposed of through the trade and the finder rewarded by the full amount obtained for these and for the other coins acquired by museums.

4 FOUR 18TH-20TH CENTURIES HOARD REPORTS 159 THE HOYLAND HOARD Two employees of the Worsborough Urban District Council, Thomas Briscoe and Joseph Hirst found the hoard during the demolition of a house ar 62, Wentworth Road, Blacker Hill, Hoyland in the West Riding of Yorkshire on 16th November When the coins were discovered under the floorboards of the downstairs back bedroom there was no trace of a container. At the inquest held on 17th January 1963 the coins were found to be treasure trove and sent to the British Museum for examination. The hoard comprised seven sovereigns, twenty-seven half-sovereigns, one double florin, thirty half-crowns, sixty-five florins, one hundred and seventy shillings and two sixpences. The earliest coin was of 1816 and the latest of While the most recent coins were scarcely worn, the bulk of the hoard was in very poor condition. The reverses of the George III and George IY shillings were completely blank and specimens of each weighed 70-8 and 75-9 grains respectively as against the official weight at issue of grains. The earlier Victorian gold as well as the silver was hardly in a much better state and the easily defaced detail of the Gothic florins had resulted in the coins of this type appearing well-worn after only a few years of circulation. The double florin of 1889 was in noticeably better condition than the contemporary silver of lower denomination. The problem of worn and under-weight coin in circulation had been recognised by the Mint authorities 1. The application of the provisions of the 1889 and 1891 coinage acts and the striking of large numbers of silver coins to replace worn ones enabled the Deputy Msater to report in 1891 that 'the silver coinage throughout the Empire is, on the whole, in a satisfactory condition' 2, and in 1892 that 'very satisfactory progress has been made during the year in the operation of replacing light weight gold coins by coins of full legal weight' 3 and that 'the character of the silver coinage continues to improve' 4. The general condition of the hoard hardly accords with this although the explanation may be to some extent that offered by the Mint Report itself when it says that coins sent into the Bank of England from the provinces included 'an undue proportion of coins greatly reduced by wear' 5 Eour of the sovereigns and two of the half-sovereigns in the hoard were struck at Australian mints. The currency of these coins in the United Kingdom is discussed in the report on the Wisbech Hoard 6. The hoard showed the usual correlation between greater wear and increasing age which is normally found in one-period deposits and it is therefore likely to have been a sum of money laid aside in or soon after The large number of coins of low denomination suggested that it represented the takings (minus the small change left in the till) of a shop or business. Coins from the hoard were acquired by the British Museum, the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, Batley Museum and Rotherham Museum as listed below. The amount realised from the sale of these coins and from the rest of the gold coins in the hoard was paid in full to the finders and the remaining silver coins, being still current, were returned to them. 1 e.g. Mint Report 1889, p. 95 ff. 2 Mint Report 1891, p Mint Report 1892, p Ibid p Ibid pp P. 157.

THE ALPHETON HOARD The hoard was found by Edward Hudgell while he was cleaning out a ditch bordering the Sudbury to Bury St. Edmunds road at Shop Hill, Alpheton, Suffolk between 24th and 26th February There was no trace of a container. At the inquest held on 3rd March 1964 the coins were declared Treasure Trove and sent to the British Museum for examination. The hoard comprised sixty-three 'silver' coins, (face value ), of which the earliest was dated 1871 and the latest 1922 and all of which are still legal tender. Coins of the Victoria 'Young Head' issue represented were in very worn condition and the latest coins, M
7 162 FOUR 18TH-20TH CENTURIES HOARD REPORTS 162 although discoloured by the soil, showed little sign of wear. The date pattern and relative condition of the coins suggested that they had been withdrawn from circulation at the time of the hoard's deposition without any evident attempt to select recent specimens in fine condition, or to favour those earlier issues with the higher silver content. The hoard was therefore likely to have been buried in, or soon after, 1922 and to have represented a sample of the silver coinage in use at that date. Although insufficient to establish the legal ownership of the hoard, the evidence of witnesses included references to a local eccentric, William Buxton (d. 1929), who was known to carry about large sums of money in coin which he said he intended to bury. He was said to have had sovereigns also, but no gold was found on this occasion. Six coins were acquired by Bury St. Edmunds Museum and the purchase price together with the remainder of the hoard was returned to the finder. ALPHETON HOARD VICTORIA Young Head Die 1. Halfcrown * 2.
