@NeverBeGameOver: This article, created on 3 February, is new enough, long enough, and well-sourced. The citations for the main hook and ALT2 check out. I think ALT2 is more interesting. However, I'm not sure about ALT1; the linked article only says that it was the first "mixed composition" hoard found in Continental Europe. Have I misunderstood?

- Mixed composition I believe refers to the "mixed currency" as in Celtic currency and Roman currency in the same batch, which is common only in the UK when the Romans invaded Britain. I thought ALT2 is amusing so we can go with that NeverBeGameOver (talk) 21:12, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  - Alright, approved with ALT2. Best, Tenpop421 (talk) 21:15, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
