About 600 royal coins gold and silver dating Louis XIII to Louis XV were discovered on Wednesday by a mason who worked in an ancient house of Montrichard (Loir-et-Cher, France), as it was learnt on Monday by the police. 215 golden coins and 374 silver coins, of a total weight of 5 kilos, very well preserved, are in the course of expertise. Some coins could reacheach several thousand of euros.
While digging a trench in a classified house ancient memorial in the course of restoration the mason found a jar in stoneware containing coins. The building, which is in full city center, dates the second half of the XVth century. The mason, who believed at the beginning to have digged iron slices, decided to bring his discovery to the gendarmerie
The treasure will be shared, according to the law, between the mason and the owner of the house, an investor installed in Paris.
