A $10 MILLION gold coin stash in California isn’t the only treasure trove uncovered in recent weeks.

A Roman gold hoard in Germany and a cache of medieval silver coins in Scotland have also been unearthed.

An amateur treasure hunter was illegally prospecting in a German forest with a metal detector when he found objects which many have linked to the legendary Nibelung hoard, that features in Norse and German sagas and Richard Wagner’s opera cycle.

"In what may be Germany’s largest ever gold-and-silver relic discovery, the illegal dig in a wooded area in the Rhineland-Palatinate region attracted attention from police when the objects were quietly offered for sale."

 

 

Obviously, not quiet enough.

I've got Miss Lorrie out scratching around the bases of the oak trees.
