Many times things that are done without thinking by chance turn out better, that happened to a group of seven friends who found an incredible treasure.
The find included coins and 12 rare gilt noblemen from the reign of
Edward III
.
The discovery was dubbed the
Hambleden Hoard
and
represents the largest collection of buried gold and silver found in the UK
for around a decade.
Detectors were used to digging up shotgun shells and were amazed to unearth coin after coin from ancient treasure trove.
The silver coins in the find come from medieval times.
The group of friends, over four days, found: 627 coins, including 12 ultra-rare gold nobles dating from the time of the Black Death.
The team consists of
Andrew Winter, Dom Rapley, Eryk Wierucki, Jaroslaw Giedyna, Dariusz Fijalkowski and the brothers Tobiasz and Mateusz Nowak
.
The friends slept at the excavation site for fear of thieves showing up.
The story transcended and in an investigation carried out by the Beaconsfield Coroner's Court, it was corroborated that the treasure met the necessary requirements to be called a historical find.
According to the
Daily Star
, anything over three coins is considered a "treasure", meaning it must be declared to the organizers.
Friends were shocked by the incredible discovery.
Dariusz Fijalkowski, one of the protagonists of this incredible discovery, said: "When I found the coins I was screaming a lot because I was very excited, maybe I should have kept quiet, but I was so happy. For me only those coins were special. They are small pieces of silver and also a piece of history. I still can't believe it."
