Builders discover stash of gold coins worth up to $356,000
Summary by Ground News
Builders found the treasure while working on the restoration of a house in Plozévet, Brittany, in the coastal area of Bigouden in 2019. While merging a barn and a nursery, the builders found a metal box lodged inside a wall, which had gold coins inside. Just days later, above a beam, they spotted a purse containing another set of coins. All 239 coins were minted during the sovereignty of Louis XIII and Louis XIV.
