Just wished to bring attention to the theft of a priceless Hoard of Anglo Saxon beads recently stolen from Canterbury Archaeological Trust UK. See the BBC News 2 Feb 2018 or the Guardian newspaper 1 Feb 2018 for images of these beautiful treasures. They are requesting people to keep a lookout on eBay

Thanks for uploading image. I hope the beads are recovered. Shame they weren't on display. So many artefacts are hidden away in Museum storage. I recently visited the exhibition of the 7th century, Anglo Saxon, Staffordshire Hoard, discovered on farmland ( www.staffordshirehoard.org.uk ). It's fabulous to actually see such truly amazing craftsmanship.
