In an interesting twist, a treasure hunter found gold coins in richmond's James river. A rise in gold prices has sparked a new gold rush, with even construction sites in Japan revealing a trove of 100,000 ancient coins. Notably, ancient gold coins have also surfaced from Spanish shipwrecks, a 350-year-old Germany treasure trove, 850-year-old graves and even buried under a church. Rare medals have shown up in eastern Poland and the US, while exceptional coins from the 4th-century and 2,000-year-old Roman treasures were found underwater. Several parties used treasure hunts to celebrate, including the University of Michigan, Boise County family team, and the US Coins & Jewelry, marking the 100th anniversary of National Coin Week with a Houston treasure hunt. Lastly, a key finding was that medieval English coins were made from melted Byzantine Silver, putting an old tale to test.
