Can’t Believe

Mark further said, “I was really excited when I saw that it was gold, but I didn’t realise at that point just how significant it might be.” The man had no idea what had he found. This ring buried under the ground for centuries had the potential of changing his life completely.

The Thrill Of Discovery

The man just had started following his hobby and had managed to find a mysterious ring. He could not believe in his achievement. According to him, it was an unbelievable discovery. Even professionals take years to discover something like this and here the man with no experience had found a precious ring buried under the ground. The luck was surely on his side. The man said that “it was such an exhilarating moment.” 

Authentic Or Not?

However, the authenticity of the ring was still under the cloud of doubts. In order to prove its authenticity, Mark had to get it checked. If the ring happens to retain the value that he hopes it to be, then his life would take a 180-degree turn. Though the man had no idea about the monetary value this ring held.       

Looking For Experts

Now his next step was to approach auctioneers to figure its value. Well, a heart rendering revelation was awaiting him. Mark learned that the ring was worth somewhere between £20,000 and £70,000 (about $25,500 – $89,500). It was a surprising amount but at the same time, he knew what was he going to do that with that big amount. The man was about to buy himself a house as he had been living in a rented house.

New Home

He said, “I’m renting at the moment and I’d love to be able to buy a house or move into somewhere more comfortable.” He would have never imagined in his entire life that he would be able to buy his own house with a discovery that he made accidentally. Thereafter, he stepped towards the British Museum with the ring in his hand. 

Is This Ring A Genuine Treasure?

Dot Boughton was on the position of the regional finds liaison officer when the man bought this again and gain. They carried the ring to the museum to get it tested. “Is it genuine or not?” It was a big question lingering on the minds of people who learned about it. Finally, they got an answer to this question. The coroner called it a treasure. But what Dot Boughton said about the ring that actually took everyone’s heart away.
