Abstract:		 A hoard of five denarii of the Roman emperor Septimius Severus, dated AD 194--8, was found at Acton, near Nantwich, during a metal-detecting rally in December 2014. The find was reported to the Portable Antiquities Scheme Finds Liaison Officer, and subsequently to the coroner as treasure. This short note outlines the definition of 'treasure' under the 1996 Treasure Act, and describes and illustrates the coins and the conical lead container they were found in. The concealment of the coins in a container apparently made especially for the purpose suggests that it was a ritual deposit rather than a savings hoard that was intended to be recovered. LD
