EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Fishpool treasure hoard, a collection of medieval gold coins found in Nottinghamshire, England. Buried around 1464 after the Battle of Hexham, these coins were intended to support the Lancastrian king Henry VI, who was defeated by the Yorkists during this tumultuous period in English history.
The intricate details of each coin reflect the wealth and power that they once represented. The gilding on these coins shimmers with a golden hue, highlighting their value and importance during the Middle Ages. Each coin tells a story of tax evasion, political turmoil, and ultimately betrayal as they were buried to protect them from falling into enemy hands.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era filled with intrigue and conflict. The Fishpool treasure hoard serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by those who fought for power and control over England.
Through this photo print, we can appreciate not only the beauty of these ancient coins but also the historical significance they hold. They are more than just pieces of metal; they are symbols of a turbulent past that continues to fascinate us today.
