Did everyone see the haul a metal detector hunter found in England. It's an unprecedented find that could revolutionize ideas about medieval England's Germanic rulers: An amateur treasure-hunter searching a farmer's field with a metal detector unearthed a huge collection of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver artifacts.
The cache of gold and silver pieces was discovered in what was once Mercia, one of five main Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, and is thought to date to between 675 and 725.

For Terry Herbert, the unemployed metal-detecting enthusiast who made the discovery on July 5 while scouring a friend's farm in the western region of Staffordshire, it was "more fun than winning the lottery."
One news put the price at 2 million but it likely to go much higher. Who says there is no profit in Treasure Hunting and it is all about the enjoyment of the outdoors. I THINK THE THRILL OF FINDING SOMETHING VALUABLE IS A BIG PART OF THE FUN.

Nuggets of News has been Unlocked. You can now post your nuggets directly on the page rather than as a thread if you like. DiamondProspector has added 8 items. The News feeds are also being utilized, but I can't vouch for it's relevance. I'll keep trying different search criteria until I find a mix that works.
