Many of the coins found were dated between 1808 and 1915, while several were minted during the twenties and thirties, which helped the museum to better determine when the coins may have been placed in the wall. “The hikers found the treasure in two containers hidden in a man-made wall in an overgrown field in February” And the morons turned it over to a museum.
