In a Facebook group post, Mangeac described the moment his ordinary day took a dramatic turn. 'On a beautiful Saturday that didn't foreshadow anything of what was to come.

Staring at the gleaming trove of coins, he found himself filled with questions: 'Whose were these coins, and what were they intended for?' Mangeac estimated the coins to be around 2,000 years old.
