Farmer near a villa rustica claimed to have found these while digging for his cistern
The nearby museum states the villa was destroyed in 233 (Raetia).

The villa had been reconstructed with a small museum explaining the background. Like many limes-frontier villae in raetia it was destroyed during the attack in 233.
It seems the local museum was not interested or already hat too many. Do you think they are real? It seemed almost too good to be true.
