Norman conquest coin hoard to go on show in Bath before permanent display

The return of the Chew Valley Hoard is a silver lining for England indeed 🙌. I think it's brilliant that the trust is using this valuable resource to not only showcase our nation's rich history but also to encourage reflection on contemporary issues like conflict and social change 💡. By exploring the hoard, visitors will gain a unique insight into the lives of those who lived through a pivotal period in English history 🏯. The fact that the coins may have been deposited for safekeeping during a siege at Exeter in 1068 highlights the intricate history of resistance to Norman rule and adds depth to our understanding of this time period 🔍.
 
🤑 I'm loving how they're not just showcasing the coins for their monetary value but also using them as a teaching tool to explore broader themes like conflict and social change. It's amazing how something that was discovered 6 years ago is still making waves today! 💡 The fact that it's going to be showcased at the Roman Baths Museum in Bath, which is steeped in history itself, is going to add another layer of depth to the experience. Can't wait to see how visitors interact with the hoard and imagine life during that tumultuous period 🤔
