Amazed to see the figures on our 'Glencoe Hoard' story which hit the news in October - 995.3 million impressions is quite the reach - thanks to @AHAllardyce, and project partners @Glencoe_Museum @NTS_archaeology, Dr Michael Given, @GCBeale, @nicoleebeale & @lizzierbertson.
ALT The coin hoard was carefully excavated back at our lab in Glasgow with the coins removed and recorded stratigraphically. The coin hoard represents an exciting addition to the assemblage from the 'Summerhouse of MacIain' site.
ALT Lucy Ankers, an undergraduate archaeology student at the University of Glasgow, discovered the hoard while excavating the hearth of the Summerhouse structure.
ALT The vessel containing the 36 coins appears to be a European stoneware vessel, perhaps previously a jug, which was repurposed to store the coins. The stone lid appears to be a reused polishing stone for leatherworking.
