This method removes visual bias and hopes to look at the distribution of copies within a hoard with intent of looking at regional patterns in hoards. The aims of this work are as follows:
• To rigorously test this method in a range of burial environments.
• To identify the role environment plays in the detection of copies by this method.
• This study also hopes to examine the following questions;
• Do types of copies differ between sites? (military vs civilian)
• What percentage of coins catalogued in each hoard are copies? How does this compare to previous identification through visual means?
This event is part of the Work in Progress Seminar Series.
