The Malmesbury Coin Hoard had a day out at the 31st annual Strawberry Fayre in Crudwell on Saturday the 14th – well about 60 of them. Hundreds of people stopped by to see the Roman coins on a beautiful hot sunny day! Volunteers had fun talking to the public about the coins and what they were doing on the project. A good idea of how much work goes into conserving was seen by comparing the conserved coins vs the coins which are not conserved. As a bonus we got to have delicious strawberries and cream at the end of the day :)
