“ He said of their big find: "Our friend found the first coin. I was stood right next to him. “
Dosnt that mean it’s their friends hoard ?

The times WHRADA have done Chew Valley area over the years.
Watching earlier TV Lisa said a guy brought her a coin for ID which she did and the rest is history.
That being the case others must be in for a share.
Good luck to them as they are dedicated detectorists.
HAPPY Hunting,
Jerry.

Somerset has yielded some exception finds in the past including "Alfred`s Jewel".
Taunton Museum is worth a visit when traveling to Devon and Cornwall, as they hold 2 massive famous Roman coin hoards.
Happy Hunting.
