[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 503317, member: 11521"]The man who found this huge cache has told the story of how he found the cache. This is a great story. He researched an area to metal detect for 16th century artifacts but he stumbled across this hoard of ancient gold coins. He found a single gold coin at the end of a cold day and could not return for a week because he had to work. He found 8 more coins his second day of detecting and 774 coins the next day.
