The cloth package containing 321 mint condition coins was found by Oxford Cotswold Archaeology while excavating at Sizewell C.

牛津科茨沃尔德考古学在 Sizewell C 进行挖掘时发现了装有 321 枚全新硬币的布包。

The coins were found in a small lead bundle the size of a Cornish pasty, which has been dubbed as “the pasty” by archaeologists.

这些硬币是在一个小铅包中发现的，其大小与康沃尔馅饼一样，考古学家将其称为“馅饼”。

The team believes the owner may have buried his money after Edward the Confessor’s coronation in 1042 and never had the chance to return.

该团队认为，主人可能在 1042 年忏悔者爱德华加冕后将钱埋了起来，再也没有机会回来。

Andrew Pegg, the archaeologist who discovered the coins, said: “The Pasty, as it was immediately and affectionately named for obvious reasons, was a true privilege to find.

发现这些硬币的考古学家安德鲁·佩吉 (Andrew Pegg) 表示：“由于明显的原因，它立即被亲切地命名为“Pasty”，发现它真是一种荣幸。

“I was shaking when I first unearthed it, seeing a single coin edge peeking at me.

“当我第一次把它挖出来时，我看到一个硬币边缘在偷看我，我浑身发抖。

“A perfect archaeological time capsule.”

“一个完美的考古时间胶囊。”

Alexander Bliss, Coin Specialist at OCA, added: “This new coin hoard provides us with valuable insight into the rich historical backdrop of this period.

OCA 的钱币专家 Alexander Bliss 补充道：“这个新的钱币宝库为我们提供了了解这一时期丰富历史背景的宝贵见解。

“To play a small part in bringing its story to life has been an honor and a privilege.”

“能够在将其故事变为现实的过程中发挥一小部分作用是一种荣幸和荣幸。”
