NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC: “Magical Mystery Treasure” buried in the English countryside

Filed under: antiques,jewelry — tmooresr @ 5:49 am

My wife and I are in Boston enjoying my wife’s family during this magnificent fall season.  This early morning, we are off to the family home in Nahant for a lobster feast.  As I am eating my breakfast, I was given some morning reading.  There it was:  the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC’s “Magical Mystery Treasure” about the magnificent 3,500 pieces of treasure unearthed on a Staffordshire farm in 2008.  These incredible pieces of gold were mostly golden adornments for war gear.  They were discovered by Terry Herbert on a farm near his home.  This article in the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC is outstanding.
