Medieval Scottish Silver Hoard FOUND!
I was out metal detecting and I found a medieval hoard of silver coins from the period of the Scottish wars of independence! This was a time when characters like William Wallace, Robert The Bruce and Edward Longshanks were battling it out for supremacy. After years of searching for even one hammered coin, it was so incredible to find a scattered hoard of medieval silver, a dream come true! Untouched for over 700 years! We would love to hear your theories about who might have buried the hoard and why!
