In 1933,
363 Danish and Norwegian coins, dating from 1736 to 1845, were found by
the boundary marker between Austli and Nossan at Alstadhaug in Nord-Trøndelag.
Of these coins, 67 were silver and 296 were copper.
The fact that the hoard was deposited by a landmark suggests that the
owner intended to reclaim his hidden capital but was somehow prevented
from doing so. In this case it is not likely that the owner would have
forgotten where the coins were buried.
