In 1771 an urn containing nearly 200 denarii was turned up by the plough. Amoung the emperors represented were Vespasian, Domitian, Trajan and Hadrian, also 2 of Faustina and a few coins of Julius Caesar, Augustus and Tiberius, once preserved in a local collection, may have come from the same hoard.
