WINNER #1
My international favorite find for July 2020 is the Bag with Medieval Coins, found by Mario S. from Europe with his Ace 300i.
Mario’s story: I sent you a great discovery that I have made. For a few days I have been exploring with my Garrett Ace 300i metal detector. The bed of a dry river, which during the Middle Ages was part of the Camino de Santiago, was crossed by pilgrims on their way to Santiago.
It is a leather bag with coins. It must have fallen from the belt of some pilgrim when crossing the river. When falling to the bottom it was buried in the mud, which has protected it from decomposition.
Inside, 32 coins of medieval origin have appeared.
Mario S. WINS an ACE 300i Metal Detector!!! Congratulations!
