Medieval silver treasure found on Gotland

A silver treasure from the 12th century has been found on the Baltic island Gotland (http://www.thelocal.se/tag/gotland), where over 600 pieces of silver coins have been unearthed, according to reports in local media.

“This is an amazing find. It’s unbelievable that treasures of this scale exist here on Gotland,” Marie Louise Hellquist of Gotland’s County Administrative Board (Länsstyrelsen (http://www.thelocal.se/tag/l%E4nsstyrelsen)) told local newspaper Hela Gotland.
