While wandering a Polish forest, a father-and-son duo has uncovered 17 rare historic coins. Found near the village of Pomiechowek, located north of Warsaw in the region of Mazovia, the cache is worth more than $120,000.
Earlier this month, metal detectorists with the Triglav Historical and Research Association and the Polish “Husaria” Treasure Hunters Association were searching for the remains of an ancient road.

Amen, Sir. But remember we have been lied to before. The last 4 years is a testament to that.
