The Castine Hoard (also known as The Castine Deposit[1]) is the name given to a treasure trove of around 500–2,000 North American colonial coins that were found in Castine, Maine, United States. The coins were from various countries, and were buried sometime in the late 1600s. In the early 1840s the coins were discovered on a farm owned by the Grindle family.
