Paul Reynard, on holiday in Northern Ireland, along with a friend went in search of a lost wedding ring, which belongs to his friend. During the search, the comrades used a metal detector. First, they found a few unremarkable finds: an ordinary horseshoe and a 50 penny coin. However, an hour and a half of searching brought unexpected results - a treasure of ancient gold coins. The treasure has already been sent for examination, during which the find was estimated at 130 thousand dollars. Among the coins found, a rare copy of the time of Henry VIII deserves special attention, which was estimated at 6.5 thousand dollars.

The found treasure is one of the largest and most expensive finds made in Northern Ireland. The profits from the sale of the treasure will be shared equally by Reynard and his companion.
