When you are gardening, we bet the last thing you would expect to find is a 700-year-old coin. Despite this, it was precisely what happened to a little girl. She could not have imagined that this lucky find of hers would bring the police to her doorstep a few years later.
Helping Her Mom
At around 9 years old, British citizen Kate Harding had been giving her mother a hand in the garden. She had simply been playing with the dirt when she came upon an old silver coin.
Buried Treasure
Like most little kids would do, Kate hid the coin from her parents and kept the buried treasure a secret. She went into her room, shut the door and cleaned the dirty coin. She had a feeling it had been buried for quite some time since it was so dirty and worn.
