Summary
A metal detectorist in Shropshire, Chris Langston, stumbled upon a heart-shaped locket engraved with arrows and a drop of blood—later confirmed as a rare memento mori from the aftermath of King Charles I’s execution. Dating to 1649, this personal relic was likely worn by Cavaliers to secretly honor their loyalty to the monarchy during a politically volatile era. The front of the locket, now officially declared treasure, would have held a portrait of the king and a chain loop. Langston, who waived any finder’s fee, is donating it to the Oswestry Town Museum for public display—a local artifact with national historical weight.
