4 Small hoards, deposits, and grave-finds are kept separate from the rest of the coins, and they are dealt with separately.

5 A further level of detail beyond that at which either Peter or Hobley worked does exist, but it has not yet been explored. If a small portable, battery-driven scanner were available, a future Hobley could travel round Europe not just recording the RIC number of each coin but scanning it onto a CD. On return to base, he could then plot the distribution of the coins struck by a single pair of dies.
