To see this nomination receiving such a lukewarm reception is disheartening and shows an astounding lack of knowledge of significant English historical/archaeological icons among the voters on this site.

This is the great treasure of the Ashmolean, in the same way that the Sutton Hoo treasure is of the British Museum and the Lindisfarne Gospels are of the British Library. If you are anywhere near Oxford it is not to be missed.
