4/19/12 16th Century Silver Pins Found in UK
"TWO silver pins – probably made in the same workshop about 500 years ago were discovered seven miles apart in South Gloucestershire by metal detector enthusiasts.
The finds, which date back to Tudor times, were made on farmland in Tytherington and Aust by metal detectorists within four months of each other. The hoard was discovered by Jonathan Talbot, 32, on farmland in Wrington in July last year.
Mr Talbot, from Wrington, said: "I doubt I will find anything that old again. I was shocked when I found them because I wasn't expecting it."
