  • The Haslemere Hoard
    THE HASLEMERE HOARD D. F. ALLEN THROUGH the kindness of Messrs. Spink & Son Ltd., and in particular Mr. D. G. Liddell, I am able to publish a hoard of uninscribed Celtic staters, found in Britain, which has a number of exceptional features. As is all too frequent, especially where gold hoards are concerned, the information about the circumstances of the finding is defective. Mr. Liddell has been extremely helpful in trying to get at the facts. The hoard appears to have contained originally about 85 or 90 (or possibly even more) coins and it was found in or about 1944 on a farm about half-way between Guildford and Haslemere in Surrey. The coins have been through three intermediate hands and it seems very unlikely that more precise information will ever turn up. The most likely area is Farley Heath, where many Celtic coins of different types and origins have been found in the past. Representative coins are shown on PL I. The coins came to the knowledge of Messrs. Spink & Son Ltd. piecemeal. Through them I have seen in all 75 coins, but something in the order of 10 or 15 more must have been found. Between 5 and 8 coins had passed through Messrs. Spink & Son's hands before it was realized that a hoard was involved and a further 3 have passed separately through the hands of Messrs. B. A. Seaby Ltd. Some 4 or 5 more appear to have been disposed of abroad. Because of the exceptional features of this hoard it is quite possible that some of these missing coins will ultimately be identifiable, but the gross total of the hoard remains an imprecise figure.
