1672 was a desaster year in the netherlands.
The frensch came here to plunder, burn the houses an rape the woman.
Here a link off the story. Rampjaar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Some body burried this hoard to protect it from plunder.
Yougest coin is from 1671.

My detecting buddy found this and asked me to take some pictures for the xp blog.

Glorious hoard, your friend did very well!

Also, it's extremely refreshing to see a thread in the "Cache Hunting" subforum where one was actually found!
