Friends' 30-year-search for Celtic treasure trove pays off - BBC News http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-38703914 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-38703914) Title: Re: Friends' 30-year-search for Celtic treasure trove pays off Post by: Val Beechey on January 22, 2017, 02:22:20 AM I remember it being found and reported at the time. Hadn't heard about the gold Torques and other stuff mixed in with the coins though.
It's been estimated about £10 million But unclear about rules and pay out on Jersey. What a hoard. I'm not greedy, one Torque would suit me. ;D Title: Re: Friends' 30-year-search for Celtic treasure trove pays off Post by: outlaw on January 22, 2017, 08:34:06 AM Its indeed a fantastic find, beats buckles and buttons with the odd hammy ;D
