Many in the numismatic community have been critical the lack of prominent display of coin hoards. This appears to be a nice exception.

The Muddy Hoard was found in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire and dates to approximately AD 274 during the joint reign of Tetricus I and his son during the Gallic Empire. The hoard consisted of 9724 Roman coins, including an unrecorded denarius of Tetricus I. (Source Wikipedia)
