A hoard of Anglo-Saxon coins believed to have been buried in a Braintree field in 1066 and then rediscovered by two metal detectorists, ended up being sold for £325,000. The collection, which were discovered in 2019, amounted to around 20 shillings at the time of their burial. Nigel Mills from auctioneers Noonans Mayfair explains how the find contained some rare mints. (Photo: Noonans)
