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. Bill

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.

I just received a slideshow about the huge crystals found in a couple caves in Mexico. The largest was something like 50 ft long! Truly amazing pics. If anyone is interested in it, message me and I'll forward it on, since I have no idea how to post power point slideshows here.

Check out this story on NBC Nightly News about the Crater of Diamonds mine in Arkansas. Our Cash and Treasures crew visited this same mine. This is also the same mine where Marvin Culver discovered a 4 carat diamond. Copy and paste the link into your Web browser. Check it out!
