200 Roman brass coins and a number of other small finds were discovered on Westgate foreshore in 1845. The coins dated from the reigns of the Emperors Tetricus to Gratian (c.268-375). They were reportedly found in a number of locations suggesting they did not come from a hoard. The other small finds included many broken brooches, several rings and bronze bangles and bracelets. It is not known where these finds are now located.
