While walking, the woman suddenly found a huge 'treasure'

A European woman accidentally found a treasure buried since the Middle Ages in what archaeologists call a once-in-a-ten-year discovery.

According to a press release from the Institute of Archeology of the Czech Academy of Sciences (ARUP), the treasure was found by a woman walking in Kutná Hora, a town located in the Central Bohemian region of the Czech Republic.

The treasure includes more than 2,150 silver coins, minted between 1085 and 1107. Experts believe they were produced in Prague and imported into Bohemia.

 A woman walking in Kutná Hora found treasure believed to have been produced in Prague and imported to Bohemia.

 The treasure includes more than 2,150 silver coins, minted between 1085 and 1107.

 Archaeologist Filip Velímský said the treasure was hidden during a time of political instability.

ARUP explained in a press release on May 16: "The discovery of this treasure shows that the money is made of coin alloy, which in addition to silver also contains a mixture of copper, lead and trace metals. The determination of the composition This special section can also help determine the origin of the silver used."

Archaeologist Filip Velímský said the treasure was hidden in a ceramic barrel that had been destroyed over the years. Velímský added that the value of ancient coins was 'unimaginable' during that time period.

He explains: 'Unfortunately, at the turn of the 11th-12th centuries we lack data on the purchasing power of contemporary coins. But that is a huge, unimaginable amount of money, unavailable – to the average person. It can be compared to winning a million dollars in the jackpot."

 The Institute of Archeology of the Czech Academy of Sciences shared this discovery.

 The treasure was stored in a ceramic barrel that was destroyed over the years.

Czech officials called the discovery 'one of the biggest in the past decade'.

"More than 2,000 silver coins represented a huge amount of money at the time," ARUP's press release said.

Historians are now working to process the coins, which includes subjecting them to X-rays and determining what material the coins are made of. The artifacts will then be displayed in an exhibition scheduled to launch in 2025.
