A hoard of 300-400 Ro silver coins was found in 1849 whilst straightening the Mansfield and Pinxton railway near the King's Mill, Mansfield (almost certainly at SK 521598 where a steep curve has been straightened). It was in a pot 2ft below the surface, and included coins of Augustus, Vespasian, L Aelius, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, M Aurelius, Commodus, Septimus Severus and Geta. The hoard was dispersed by the workmen. (1)
