"This has been a true community effort, and we are immensely grateful to everyone who supported our campaign to keep this rare treasure in the Chichester District," said Councillor John Cross, Cabinet Member for Culture, Sport, and Place at Chichester District Council.
"As our first crowdfunding campaign, the public response has been remarkable - not only in monetary donations, but also in terms of the kind messages we received and support from those who have shared our campaign. We extend a special thank you to our anonymous donor for their incredible generosity."
"Acquiring the Stopham mount into our collection will be an invaluable resource for our local residents, researchers, and school groups, helping us delve into Saxon history with new depth and understanding. It is so exciting to be able to keep this local treasure within the Chichester District and display it for the local and wider community to enjoy."
