Huge Gold Trove Discovered in Staffordshire

Stafforshire (in the UK Midlands, home of Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme) was the site of a discovery of 1500 gold pieces, which may date to the 7th century, reports the BBC. It was found on a farm by a guy with a metal detector. It is much bigger than the Sutton Hoo discovery in 1939. A Treasure Valuation committee will probably value the find.
