Jewel Recently Found From Henry VIII’s Crown

This is a recent news article I have been sent about a metal detectorist who has found the centrepiece jewel of Henry VIII's lost crown buried under a tree 400 years!  How much could it be worth?  The detectorist thought the jewel was some crumpled tin foil out of a Mr Kipling packet but on investigating further he realised what a valued treasure it could be.  So why did this jewel appear under a tree in Leicestershire?  To find out the answers to these questions and more related information please select the following link:
