A spectacular silver coin hoard has just emerged from Cotswold soil – the first Iron Age coin hoard in the museum’s collection. It contains more than 160 coins dating to the late Iron Age, and displays a variety of stunning abstract designs attributed to the Dobunni tribe.

Join Collections Engagement Officer James Harris to hear the story of how this important treasure was found and the meaning behind it.

There has been a sharp rise in the number of ‘days out’ which turn out to be entirely fake. This can be a costly and disappointing mistake, affecting many people. Pop up markets at palaces and cable cars in scenic locations are recent fake days out advertised.

AI is often used to mock up pictures which make the fake locations look really authentic. These fake days out can be bought online and are often promoted by influencers who have failed to check if the promotion is real. Tickets are also sold for fake craft fairs and ‘secret venue’ film screenings when there is no real event.
