As cool as this discovery is, the answer to where they came from is likely to be rather mundane: through trade with China, Korea, Indonesia, etc. The most likely answer for why they would be intentionally buried (if they were - because everything at the site is buried) is in the article.

I know that there is a good, and solid reason why they are there.
But, I know enough nutbars to suspect time travel or other conspiracy. |

You'd surely have to be a bigger nutbar than usual to posit time travel as an explanation for a fourth-century coin being found in a fifteenth-century hoard... if it was a fifteenth-century coin in a fourth-century hoard then perhaps!
My granny used to have some old Chinese coins in a tin in her house in England. I reckon she was a space alien. |

Since humans (among others) have been known to bury things, I think there's a much more likely solution than time travel, though; as, apparently, does at least one of the archaeologists involved. |

But I think it's lots of fun to point out things like that!

Well, I do have friends and relatives (not on this board obviously) that do believe in the Bermuda Triangle, Aliens building pyramids and such.
http://www.paranormal-encyclopedia.c...gons-triangle/ The Dragon's Triangle will play heavily in their thoughts about this find (if they learn of it. I'm not telling them). Shhhh. ![]() |

Incidentally, Roman coins, particularly 4th century British, are very common and quite cheap. You can get them for about 20 dollars each. |

Do any of the coins depict something that resembles a 1960's British police box?

No, but there's something that looks a lot like a phone booth on one.
