The storage of historical artifacts in Britain has been a problem. The lack of display or public sale of numismatic finds is especially frustrating.

Historic England says that museums could soon run out of room for such artefacts. A report commissioned by the public body and Arts Council England shows that unless they acquire more storage space, the amount of material coming out of the ground will soon be greater than the space available to store it.

"The clock is ticking - we have four or five years before we really do start seeing massive problems," said Barney Sloane, national specialist services director at Historic England.
