Treasure Trove of Rare 17th-Century Coins Discovered in Poland
In a remarkable find near the town of Pomiechówek, Poland, a father and son from the Triglav Historical and Research Association, Sławomir and Szymon Milewscy, have unearthed a hoard of rare 16th and 17th-century coins valued at approximately half a million zlotys. Collaborating with the Polish Association of Searchers “Husaria,” the discovery was part of an exploration project initially focused on finding traces of a Roman-era trade route. However, instead of ancient roads, they stumbled upon a treasure trove with immense historical and material value, reports Nauka w Polsce (PAP).
