Buffy Bailey, an NHS nurse from
Lancaster, was searching farmland near Sheriff Hutton Castle in North Yorkshire
with husband Ian when her detector picked up a strong signal close to a
footpath. It was a solid gold
Bible which has left scholars stunned. The small object, that is just
1.5cm long, weighs around 5g and is either 22-carat or 24-carat gold, dates
back to the 15th century and is believed to have belonged to a relative of King
Richard III.
