A "significant" hoard of Anglo Saxon gold unearthed by a metal detector in a Leeds field is to go on show.
Seven objects including four rings, which date between the seventh to 11th Centuries, were discovered in separate searches in 2008 and 2009.
The exact location of where the gold was discovered was never disclosed.
Leeds Museums and Galleries said it was "excited" to reveal details of the location in a new exhibition at the City Museum, which opens on Tuesday.
One of the artefacts is a gold ring with a lozenge-shaped bezel set with a garnet gem.
