Archaeologists in Eastern Bohemia have announced the chance discovery of a rare treasure near the north-eastern town of Trutnov. Hidden in a forest, the 7-kilogram hoard includes nearly four kilos of gold coins, worth over CZK 7.5 million.
The sensational discovery took place in early February when two hikers were walking on the southwest slopes of Zvičina Hill, located at the foothills of the Krkonoše Mountains.
