3000 yr (Bronze age) gold? Torc like twisted gold bar?

[TannersHatch]

Blimey. I think I might actually have found something 😯

Torc fragment I reckon. They cut these twisted gold jewelry items up later (after purchase or 'removal' from the wearer) to use as currency.

I've already let the FLO know with an email pic etc.
Found in a park in Sussex. Might get a bit told off but no damage done to ground and found yesterday so hopefully they won't mind too much. If they do, well...

What you think guys?

Makes one wonder if it was just a single piece, or the rest is still under there waiting for the next major plowing of the field.
Still made for a free future trip over(winner) didn't it?

Yup, he won find of the year and a free, or, near free trip back over.

Ya, nearly a freebie.
Buddy and me were figuring it was pushing a $1.00 (Can) a minute.
But it's the best money spent for getting a dream come true.

When I figured it, it came out to be about $20 an hour U.S. which included air fare, food, drink, side bets, etc, for a one week trip. Can't wait to do it again in the spring!
