Early reports suggest that the treasure included over 30,000 gold and silver coins, a wide range of jewellery, five plates and a large number of silver figurines. Most of these objects disappeared, presumably to be melted down for the value of their <a href="/wiki/Bullion" title="Bullion">bullion</a>. Just eight statuettes and one silver plate remain from the original treasure. The statuettes were bequeathed by the museum trustee and philanthropist <a href="/wiki/Richard_Payne_Knight" title="Richard Payne Knight">Richard Payne Knight</a>, while the plate was acquired by the museum as part of the <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Louis_Jean_Casimir_de_Blacas" title="Pierre Louis Jean Casimir de Blacas">Duc de Blacas</a> collection. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Original_purpose">Original purpose</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=M%C3%A2con_Treasure&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Original purpose"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The statuettes probably formed part of a public or domestic shrine or <a href="/wiki/Altar" title="Altar">altar</a> for local worship. A figure engraved in the central <a href="/wiki/Medallion" class="mw-redirect" title="Medallion">medallion</a> of the dish shows a man pouring a libation at an altar. Based on the age of the latest coins found with the hoard (none of which date later than the Roman emperor <a href="/wiki/Gallienus" title="Gallienus">Gallienus</a>), archaeologists have estimated that the treasure originates from the second half of the 3rd century, when this part of Gaul was facing insurrection during the <a href="/wiki/Crisis_of_the_Third_Century" title="Crisis of the Third Century">Crisis of the Third Century</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Description">Description</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=M%C3%A2con_Treasure&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Description"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Four of the statuettes represent the Roman deity <a href="/wiki/Mercury_(mythology)" title="Mercury (mythology)">Mercury</a>, who was widely worshipped in <a href="/wiki/Roman_Gaul" title="Roman Gaul">Roman Gaul</a>.
