Ipswich Hoard : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ipswich Hoard
There are two notable Ipswich Hoards. The first was a hoard of Anglo-Saxon coins discovered in 1863. The second was a hoard of six Iron Age gold torcs that was discovered in 1968 and 1969. The latter hoard has been described as second only to the Snettisham Hoard in importance as a hoard from the Iron Age, and is held at the British Museum. ==First hoard (1863)== The first hoard was found in an earthenware pot buried about beneath the doorstep of the house at the corner of Old Buttermarket and White Hart Lane in Ipswich, which had previously belonged to numismatist James Conder (1763–1823), when it was demolished during road widening in 1863.〔(Coins offer up clues to the past ), East Anglia Daily Times, 15 July 2010〕 It was reported as consisting of 150 coins, although only 75 are known now. The coins were all silver pennies of the reign of Æthelred the Unready, minted in London and Ipswich. It is tempting to associate this find with the ravaging of Ipswich which took place in 991. However clues in the coins indicate that the hoard may have been deposited between 979 and 985.〔(An atlas of Anglo-Saxon and Norman coin finds, c.973-1086 ), David Michael Metcalf, p. 109, accessed August 2010〕
