Viking treasure found on Gotland

Published: 30th October 2006 13:00 CET

Two young men on Gotland have found Viking treasure dating to the 10th century.

The treasure cache consists of silver coins, weighing a total of around 3 kilos. They were discovered by 20-year-old Edvin Svanborg and his 17-year-old brother Arvid, who were working in the grounds of their neighbour, artist Lars Jonsson.

The brothers started looking for more coins, and quickly realised that they had found something very valuable. In quite a small space they found around 1,100 coins and a few bracelets. Most of the treasure was in good condition, although rabbits had left their mark on some of the coins.

I had a bit of a pause while deciding whether to post the story since it wasn't found by treasure hunters, but thought that maybe someone who does might be interested in the area. Sounds like it would be a great place to hunt. Sue

This is true.  There are still many more to find in many places.  All we have to do is find them.
