Cable Forum - Gold hoard found is treasure ....

........missed my chance ,i used to play in and around those fields as a kid :(

Quote:

Nearly all the pieces of Anglo-Saxon gold found in the same field as the Staffordshire Hoard have been declared treasure at an inquest in Stafford.
The verdict was 81 of the 91 objects were treasure, as they were more than 300 years old with a precious metal content of above 10%.
The items were found after the field in Hammerwich was ploughed in November.
