A Celtic gold stater, believed to date back to 65 BC, and an Edward III quarter noble from the 14th Century, were found in Sudbury, Derbyshire.Musket ammunition, Bronze Age axes and a Roman coin were also found in the 47-acre "field of dreams"."The first couple of hours [of the dig] were not good," Mr Hyde said.
And an hour later, Mr Hyde, who has been metal detecting for about nine months, unearthed the Edward III quarter noble."There were some other amazing finds on the dig. It was a field of dreams." "It is highly unlikely that they were deposited together given that they date more than 1,500 years apart."Jasper Hyde described the location where he found the coins as a "field of dreams"
