Viking treasure found on Island

A piece of Viking treasure has been found on the Isle of Man.

It comes following a 'Treasure Trove' inquest which was held earlier today - such an inquest is only held when a person finds what they believe to be genuine treasure.

Manx National Heritage has confirmed a small piece of Viking Age Silver - which was found back in September by metal detectorist Lee Morgan was declared as treasure by Coroner of Inquests Jayne Hughes earlier today.

It says the ingot dates back to between AD 950 and 1075.
