A metal detectorist in England's Suffolk has found a hoard of silver coins estimated to be worth 50,000 pound. Don Crawley, 50, had been wandering farmland with a metal detector in his home county when he came across 99 old coins including pennies and halfpennies. They are thought to have been buried more than 1,000 years ago, in 999AD, and to date back to the reign of the Anglo-Saxon monarch, King Ethelred II. (Photo/VCG)
