It is a coin treasure!
Friends in England went hunting in a field. They used metal detectors.
“Beep.” One friend found a coin. “Beep.” Another found a coin. “Beep-beep-beep-beep-beep.” There were coins, coins, and more coins!
All the coins are over 900 years old. They show two kings from that time. The friends found a real treasure.
