Roman bridge again, but not just roman!

[Taranis]

The weather wasn't good on a weekend.
Strong wind and was raining, but I went out my favourite roman place again to the bridge.
The results are here:

Think this coin is "Kapos" celtic, but I'm not expert in this period.

Looks like some traces of silvering still on those early 4th century AEs. Any sign of burial jar shards?

 

[Taranis]

Yes the one that is silver-plated yet.
There was not a cemetery, an old Roman bridge and brook.
I think it was a roman village.​

Often, coins were buried in jars, which preserved their condition, which is why I was wondering. Usually, the silvering is lost completely when the coins oxidize in the soil. If there was one, perhaps many more...

Ohhh understand!
Thank you this information, next time I go back!
But this place is black dry sand.
