Lucky adventure! Hikers discover that the treasure buried by Nazis 100 years ago may be worth the rupee…
Two people hiking in the Czech Republic stumbled upon a treasure trove worth over Rs 280 crore, a lucky surprise. Since then, the East Bohemia has owned the items, and he said the collection includes nearly 600 gold coins, jewelry and tobacco bags.
According to the New York Post, two people were on a hike in the Czech Republic, which was a lucky surprise. Since then, the East Bohemia has owned the items, and he said the collection includes nearly 600 gold coins, jewelry and tobacco bags, with a total weight of about 7 kilograms.
“My chin has fallen”
Hikers walk outside the forest edge of the Podeck Northon Mountains in Europe when they discover this discovery. Experts say the gold coins may have been hidden for more than a hundred years and may have been buried after 1921. The series includes the currencies of France, Belgium, the Ottoman Empire and former Austria-Hungary.
“My chin fell off when he (one of the hikers) opened it (collection),” said Miroslav Novak, head of archaeology at the Museum of the Czech Republic.
Found a few months ago
Even though the discovery was made in February, the museum released information to the public last week.
Experts are currently trying to figure out how the treasure ends up being buried on the side of the mountain. “Storing valuable items on the ground in the form of treasures has been a common practice since prehistoric times.”
Lucky hikers share
One theory that emerges among experts is that when the Nazi retreated from Russia at the end of World War II, the Nazi retreated from Russia might have hidden treasures.
“It's hard to say whether this is the gold of the Czechs, who had to leave the gold of the occupied territory (OR) after the Nazi invasion in 1938, fearing that it would be displaced after 1945,” said museum director Petr Grulich. “It could also be a stolen commodity in an antique shop, but we don't tend toward that option.”
Under Czech law, these two lucky hikers will receive 10% of the total value of the discovery.
