A hoard of 21 coins has been discovered by a group of metal detectorists in Devon.
The Teignbridge History Finders, based in Newton Abbot, found the silver groats and pennies in a field near Okehampton Castle over a period of a few weeks.
The five finders – Paul May, Neil King, Pete Young, Clive Hammett and Jim Luxton – said they had named the find the Okey Hoard and that landowner of where they were found wished to remain anonymous.
The team said the coins were being assessed under the Treasure Act 1996 but they hoped they would go on display in a museum soon.
The items in the scattered hoard were found over a few weeks at the end of 2023.
However, the team, which has been going for about a year, has only now been able to reveal what members found because of laws about treasure discovery.
When treasure of such a nature is found, it must be reported to the local coroner and the landowner.
Verification of the coins has dated them between 1282AD and 1434AD, spanning the reigns of Edward I (1272-1307), Edward III (1327-1377) and Henry VI (1422-1461).
James Luxton, who leads the group, said they were of historical significance but would not “make anyone rich” but the team was enjoying the success.
