The British Museum tries to raise money to buy Henry VIII gold pendant

Buried jewellery linked to Henry VIII is now at the heart of a modern-day treasure hunt. The British Museum is trying to raise millions of pounds to buy a rare necklace, known as the Tudor Heart, to add to its collection. The pendant was found by a metal detectorist in the English county Warwickshire six years ago, and belonged to the King's first wife, Katherine of Aragon.
