All dig - 2 (8 photos)

Inspired by the example of his "fellow captive" Terry Herbert from Staffordshire, Scotsman David Booth bought a metaloiskatel to look for old coins, secretly hoping, of course, to find the treasure.
And what do you think?
Found!
Cost pulls at 1 million pounds ...

Four gold "chain" known as «Torcs», found at a depth of 6 inches from the surface in the open field, near Stirling.





David Booth happy with the treasure.



Torcs dated 1st - 3rd century BC - Iron Age jewelery.



Rainbow over Sterling, the place where the treasure was found.



David Booth on his loan Focus came in the box and pulled out metaloiskatel to check if it works.
Metal detector worked in seven steps from his car and Booth started to dig ...



When he dug the treasures he brought them home and photographed, and the next day took photos to show in the National Museum of Scotland.
Curator of Zhelezngo century Roman Empire Dr Fraser Hunter saw pictures fell off the chair.



Findings indicate that these products are the missing link that combine local style and the style of the Mediterranean, and the people of Scotland at the time were not in isolation, as previously thought, and had close ties with the mainland.



And that's part of the treasure that found Terry Herbert in Staffordshire. Now they will be displayed together with the treasure of David Booth.
