A tiny fragment of gilded silver treasure found by a keen detectorist has left experts baffled.

The late Roman-era 1in (26mm) by 0.5in (13mm) piece was found near Diss, Norfolk, in February 2022 but no-one can work out what it was part of.

Experts in the UK and Europe have been consulted but cannot solve the mystery.

Dr Helen Geake, Norfolk's county finds liaison officer, said: "The most basic question of all is, 'what was this?' ... it's a bit frustrating."
