Ex Winterbourne Strickland Hoard (PAS WILT-DF1BB7).
Discovered in summer 2013, the Winterbourne Stickland hooard was a rare Iron Age Hoard found in the county of Dorset, South West England, close to Maiden Castle, thought to be the capital of the Durotriges. They were the only tribe who did not add inscriptions to their coins and the only stribe to strike a stater in silver. The Cranbourne Chase stater envolved from a 4th Century BC Macedonian gold stater and was introduced around 60 BC and gradually debasedd until it disappeared around the time of the Claudian invasion in AD 43.
