MEDIEVAL COIN TREASURE FOUND IN SOUTHERN BULGARIA
Arthur Shippee forwarded some items from the Explorator
newsletter. Here's an item about a coin find in Bulgaria. It's interesting
when coins are found hiding so near the surface over hundreds of years.

Treasure of 79 golden and silver coins was
found by archaeologists in a rock crack near the Rodopi mountain Gulabovo
village. The coins were found at hardly 30 cm underground in a rock's crack, covered with stones.
The crack is in the bases of a Thracian sanctuary, which was functioning as a Christian temple.
