300+ Roman Gold Coins Found in Como, Italy*
Workers uncovered an amphora with 300+ gold coins (4th–5th century AD) at Teatro Cressoni. Coins feature Honorius, Valentinian III, Leo I, and others. Each coin is ~4g pure gold. A gold bar was also found.
*Key Points:*
- Coins were neatly stacked; first 27 examined in Milan.
- Likely hidden during Germanic invasions by a wealthy individual or bank.
- Como (founded 59 BC by Julius Caesar) was a thriving Roman settlement.
- Coins will likely go to Paolo Giovio Archaeological Museum.
*Significance:* One of northern Italy’s most complete Roman coin collections, shedding light on monetary history.
