<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ocatarinetabellatchitchix, post: 5265176, member: 99554&quot;]Near 14,000 pieces of bronze dating from the Roman era from the 3rd and 4th centuries AD were found in 2010 in France. I remember there was a fight in court in 2016 between the 3 discovers of the 250 lbs of Roman coins (worthing 100,000 euros). The tractor driver who was digging and broke the jar containing the hoard wanted to be declared the only owner...but he finally lost his case.</p><p>These coins were first entrusted to the DRAC (Regional Directorate of Cultural Affairs) for a legal expertise lasting 5 years,&nbsp; but the municipality finally regained possession at the end of June 2017. A first offer from collectors was first declined and then finally accepted by the City Council after a proposal for a more compliant sum of € 50,000.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
