Post by kev woodward »

Hoard of silver coins was discovered near Lenborough, Buckinghamshire
Some date from the reign of Ethelred the Unready in the 990s and just over 4,000 were minted during the reign of his successor, Canute
One was mis-truck - an Agnus Dei coin containing a lamb and flag
Hoard has been declared treasure, but has not yet been officially valued

Congratulations to Paul Coleman for his persistance after 50 years of detecting :g38:
Internet went down last night so I had to spend some time with the family.
They seem like good people.
