Treasure hunter’s metal detector suddenly beeps—so he starts digging & can’t believe

Treasure hunter?s metal detector suddenly beeps?so he starts digging & can?t believe his eyes | Saxon coins | silver coins | archeology | NTD Inspired

A stash of Anglo Saxon coins worth well over 1 million pounds. In fact, it was one of the biggest hoards of ancient coins ever uncovered in Britain.

Stored centuries ago in a coffin lined with lead, which the finder’s detector first registered. But inside, the coins were found in pristine condition and in numbers that would make any archaeologist’s head spin. There were over 5,000 silver coins that were minted during the reign of Ethelred the Unready and Cnut, rulers whose lives spanned a period between 978 and 1035 AD.......!

(Hey guys, always dig those BIG targets, as you'll never know that you've found a hoard, if you don't......!)
