Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The series of events mentioned in this description are as follows -  

a) In 1850, ash layer deposits over the layer of red clay  

b) In 1902, layer of silt from tsunami covers the ash

Now pot is found in between ash and red clay layer  

While coin is found in between ash and silt.  

Thus, it is clear that pot was first buried between the ash and red clay layer. While coin was buried in 1902 above the ash layer but beneath the silt layer.  

Hence, option B is correct
