36 Extraordinary Treasures THAT WERE Discovered By Ordinary People

By Mark Jacob

Take one: You wake up, get ready, go to work, it’s a usual day. None of us expects something unusual or different in our day to day lives. Every day is the same, it comes and goes.

Take two: You wake up, you get ready, and as soon as you go for gardening, you discover an antique treasure that could cost a fortune and you are rich overnight. The day will not be the same as all the other days.

The list of these people is worth reading, where they are themselves taken aback when they are doing nothing exceptional but end up finding an extraordinary treasure!

The Staffordshire Hoard

A man named Terry Herbert while searching farmland found some gold artifacts and this discovery led to further exhumation in upcoming days. English Heritage, a registered charity paid archaeologists for digging which led them to unearth more than 3,500 different individual items that were bought by the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery bought for more than £3 million at an auction. This incident took place in 2009.
