Abstract:On 11 February, while searching with a metal detector for stray coins on Bullock Down Farm at Beachy Head near Eastbourne in Sussex (O.S. 577962), Mr D. J. Aldred discovered a hoard of 5540 argentiferous bronze Roman imperila antoniniani, contained in a bronze bucket, within a few yards of the find-spots of the 1961 and 1964 hoards. The coins were subsequently declared a Treasure Trove at a coroner's inquest, and the finders were named as Mr Aldred and Mr E. D. Williams of Bullock Down Farm.
