Inquiry rates 131 gold coins unearthed in East Anglia field over nearly 30 years as one collection
More than 130 gold coins unearthed by metal detectorists from a field in west Norfolk over a period of almost 30 years have been declared the largest hoard of such items from the Anglo-Saxon period found in England.
The 131 coins, as well as four other gold objects dating to 1,400 years ago, were sporadically discovered between 1991 and 2020, but it was only on Wednesday that an inquiry deemed them to be part of the same hoard.
