Rosa Norström

Rosa Norström (13 November 1860 – 24 May 1944) was a Swedish numismatist and museum curator at the Royal Coin Cabinet, who published an account of the discovery of a hoard of 646 Roman denarii in Gotland.

She began work at the Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1899, as an assistant at the Royal Coin Cabinet.

[1][2][3] Between 1899 and 1929, according to Timo Talvio, she was essentially "in charge of the cabinet", where she led rearrangement of some of the series held in the collection.

[4][5] The American Journal of Archaeology recorded her publication of the discovery of a hoard of Roman denarii from Sigdes, near Burs in Gotland.

[6] The hoard contained 646 coins, dating from the reigns of Nero to Septimus Severus (64–195 AD).
