{{Coord|49.23|N|2.09|W|region:GB|display=title}}Trinity Hoard is a collection of Bronze Age items, including 23 bronze axeheads, found inside a pottery container in 2012 by metal detectorist Ken Rive^[1] in the Parish of Trinity in the north of Jersey.^[2] Initially, only two axeheads were identified, but after scanning by an X-ray scanner at Jersey Airport, a further 21 axeheads were seen to be present in the pot. The first two axeheads were subjected to an X-ray fluorescence scan at Cranfield University, which showed that the bronze alloy has a very high lead content (nearly 55%). Such a high lead contents would have made the axes too soft for practical use, suggesting that they were prestige objects that were accumulated as a sign of wealth.^[3]

The find came months after another significant find in Jersey, the Grouville Hoard.
