A big pile of Roman coins found in a building site near Worcester is thought to be worth over £100,000.
Roman coins found in Worcester are valued at more than £100,000
It is believed the 1,368 Iron Age and Roman coins, which were found in the Leigh and Bransford area last year, date back to Emperor Nero's reign between AD 54-68.
The vast majority of the Worcestershire Conquest Hoard are silver denarii, which were minted in Rome, and it is thought the hoard belonged to a farmer who provided livestock and grain to the Roman army.
The collection, which also includes an Iron Age stater gold coin and a pot, was declared treasure in June and the Worcestershire Heritage, Art and Museums wants to raise £6,000 to display it all.
Dr. Murray Andrews, a lecturer in British archaeology at University College London (UCL), hailed the discovery as the "most miraculous thing" he has seen "over the last 100 years".
He said: "It's an important piece of archaeology.
"It tells us about what was happening here 2,000 years ago when the Malvern hills were maybe the boundary of the Roman Empire."
