Coin trove from time of Norman conquest becomes England’s highest-value find £4.3m hoard acquired for the nation by South West Heritage Trust will be displayed at British Museum next month

A huge hoard of coins - 2,584 silver pennies – was discovered in a field in Somerset. It contains many coin types - of both Harold and William I - that have never been seen before. I hope the lion on the door of the BM got a rub on the nose!
