Coins Found in the Thames During Roman Coin Find
At a Numismatic Society meeting Charles Roach Smith discussed Roman coins found in the Thames bed during work for London Bridge reconstruction. The hoard, mostly brass, includes hundreds of coins of Vespasian Domitian and Titus, with Adrian Diocletian Severus Constantine Claudius Nero, suggesting three centuries of Roman Britain history. Coins were well preserved, some under a bridge foundation, and no local or Greek coins appeared. The find spurred debate on a Roman bridge over the Thames at that spot.
