A precious hoard of Roman and late Iron Age coins has been found in Reynard’s Cave in Dovedale, Peak District. It is the first time coins from two separate civilisations have been unearthed together. The 26 coins, including 3 Roman ones and 20 gold and silver Iron Age pieces are thought to belong to the Corieltavi tribe.
Walkers found four coins, sparking a full excavation of the site by the National Trust, helped by wounded ex-soldiers returning from Afghanistan as part of their recuperation. Archaeologist Rachael Hall said ‘The coins would suggest a serious amount of wealth and power of the individual who owned them’.

There is this link to, courtesy of Sanctuary, sure he won't mind, but Reynard's Cave where they were found was also on 'Countryfile' last night...

Native and Roman coins were found together during excavations at Covesea Cave as far as I remember.
