So excited to be attending and presenting in person at SMA, making the case for in-person collection access and the unexpected benefits that can arise from this (Look at me doing non-coin-related presentations! ) #museum #Archaeology @SocMusArch

In 4th C Roman Britain, copies of base metal coins were hoarded alongside official issues. We dont know who made them or why they appear but we dont think they are meant to deceive. But how many copies are out there and how can we tell them apart? 1/14 #ArchMoL21 #ArchaeoSTEM

So what have we learned from analysing the Poole Hoard with pXRF? An additional 19 coins identified chemically! This brought the copy count up to 55!! Is this a massive change? Not quite but it tells us we need to be careful of copies hiding in plain sight! 13/14 #ArchMoL21

pXRF can be a valuable tool in coin analysis. Knowing how many copies are out there can help us start putting together regional patterning. Identifying copies within hoards is only the first step in understanding, however its an important one. 14/14 #ArchMoL21 Questions?
