Paddy Posted January 7 Posted January 7 If you missed the first episode of the new Digging for Britain series on BBC 2 this evening, 7th Jan 2025, it is worth catching up with it on I Player. They show the Suffolk hoard of Harold I, Harthcanute and Edward the Confessor in much better detail than they usually do with coins. The penny that they can track as minted in Eastcheap London is particularly interesting, and they say unique. Here is the BBC news report on the same hoard: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9wl9re5j1qo 2 Quote

Paddy Posted January 8 Author Posted January 8 I agree, Alice Walker is also an attraction, though Lucy Worsley on Friday is slightly more to my taste! 1 Quote
