The Roman coins were found by teenagers George Young, his brother Jack Young, and a friend, Ernest Slinn, in 1922, on a ledge in a cave in Eastwood, Ashover.
They range from Septimus Severus (193-211 AD) to Gordiamus III (238-244 AD).
Altogether there were 43 coins of small value, some bones and a silver ring.
