The mechanic suddenly discovered the golden treasure in the ancient piano

An English guitar repairer suddenly discovered a large pocket of money worth over 14 billion VND while cleaning and adjusting the keys on the piano at a school.

While repairing the piano for a British school, Martin Backhouse, 61, a guitar repairer, found 913 coins minted from 1847 to 1915.

This amount is estimated by ancient experts to be worth £ 500,000, equivalent to more than VND14 billion at current prices.

The collection of gold coins was discovered in an antique piano.

The largest money bag ever found in this UK is an unidentified property owner. Because many people claim they are owners of the instrument, but they do not give evidence.

The instrument was owned by the couple Graham Hemmings (72 years) and his wife Meg (65). However, they did not know anything about this treasure even though they had owned the guitar for 33 years until donating it to a school without musical instruments in Shropshire, England.

Graham Hemmings and his wife - who donated a half-million pound gold bag for a school.

Mr. Martin Backhouse was the one who found the money in the guitar case.

They bought the old guitar to give it to the children since childhood, after they grew up, the herd was long without users.

Immediately after hearing the announcement of a school lacking a piano for students to practice and would like to receive the donations of unused old pianos from the locals, the couple gave this piano. Do not discover the secret golden treasure inside.

However, they will not own the "big" money because the instrument is no longer owned by them. According to British law, the tuner has the ability to detect, the tuner and the school will be equally divided by 50:50.

Meanwhile, the tuner, Martin Backhouse, said: "I saw the keys being stuck. I picked up the keys and told myself there was something below.

I saw an old bag sewn very carefully and when I picked up the bag it was very hard. I use a knife to slit the bag out and see what's inside like gold coins. "

Because he did not believe what he looked at, Mr. Martin put the money bag in the old place so no one could see it. Then he went straight to the office to find the principal. They moved the hidden money bag with a total weight of 6kg of gold into the school safe and phoned the authorities.

Mr. Martin and the school can secretly keep to themselves but they do not.

The instrument contains secret treasures.

When asked if any thoughts crossed his mind to silently keep this secret to himself, he said: "No, that's not the right thing. I believe the school needs that money too. as much as me ".

The authorities have announced to find the legal owner of the money but no one has proof to prove it. Currently, gold bags are sent to the British Museum to make artifacts. The museum will pay cash to the school and the doctor will adjust the strings at the same rate (£ 250,000).

Sharing about the plan to use this money, Martin Backhouse said he would give his children that money and he would retire a few years earlier because his hearing was weak.

Meanwhile, despite not receiving any money, Mr. and Mrs. Hemmings said they did not regret giving the instrument to school.

They also expressed their admiration for the string repairer with honesty and the reward he deserved.
