This is somewhat easy to explain. A Roman vessel likely got blown off course from the Spanish coast. It drifted for days and the crew died along the way, and weeks later, it beached on the Texas coast. The local Indians probably found the coins and considered them lucky objects.

As plausible an explanation as any other.
