As soon as people buy a new house, they get it renovated as per their own, so that there is no problem in future. Good things are installed in it. Get the interior done as per your wish. Thinking the same, a person living in England also decided to get his kitchen repaired. But when the floor was being excavated, a knocking sound started coming from below. They thought that perhaps there might be a brick or stone below. But when the soil was removed, they were stunned to see it. A 400 year old buried treasure was hidden below.

According to the report of Live Science, Betty and Robert Fuchs, residents of Dorset, had bought a new house some time ago. A lot of things were not right inside, which needed to be renovated. He gave the responsibility to a contractor. There was a lot of concrete and mud on the kitchen floor. Robert Fuchs told, when we started digging the floor to remove it, a knocking sound started coming from below while hitting the axe. As soon as the workers removed the soil from there, they were stunned to see it. A shiny ceramic pot filled with coins was seen. Inside it, more than 1,000 gold and silver coins were kept tied in a bundle.

Price quoted at Rs 63 lakh
When Robert Fuchs showed them to an expert, he said that this treasure was probably hidden during the First Civil War. He arranged for it to be sent to the British Museum, where it was cleaned. Museum officials said the coins were collected approximately between 1642 and 1644. The dates written on these indicate this. When these coins were put in the auction, they were priced at $75,900 i.e. approximately Rs 63 lakh.

A gold coin sold for $6,260
According to the auctioneer Duke, the treasure ranged from ordinary sixpence, to Unite coins made of gold. These featured scenes of Emperor Edward VI, Mary and her husband Philip, Elizabeth I, James I and Charles I. Many coins were sold individually or in groups during the auction on April 23. A gold coin of Charles I sold for $6,260. Many were sold at prices much higher than their estimated value. Betty Fuchs told The Guardian, if we had not tried to break the floor, we might not have been able to reach this treasure. We were lucky to get it.
