Looking for a wedding ring, a man unexpectedly dug up a treasure worth 3 billion VND

Paul Raynard, 44, from Ballycastle, Northern Ireland, accidentally dropped his wedding ring in a field. He then asked his best friend, Michael Gwynne, to use a metal detector to search for the ring.

After the machine rang the first time, the two dug and found only a few rusty coins and an old horseshoe. They searched for a long time but could not find the ring and were about to give up. However, the machine rang again, Paul Raynard and Michael Gwynne continued digging and this time they found a jar containing 82 ancient coins.

The coins were sent to the Ulster Museum for formal identification and valuation by a team of experts.

According to archaeologists, these gold coins all date back to the 1500s. This jar contains many different types of ancient coins. Among them is an extremely rare Henry VII coin, estimated to be worth up to 5,000 pounds each. In addition, another coin from 1546, from the time of King Edward VI, is worth up to 3,000 pounds.

This is the largest treasure found in Ireland to date. It is estimated to be worth at least £100,000. The valuable coins will be split equally between Paul and the landowner.
