The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 546: Good luck bursting

A large wheeled crane of at least fifty tons was standing on the dock, and there were two small trucks beside it, but no container flat trailer was seen.

This island is just such a big place, and the unloaded containers are directly stacked at the pier: there is no other place to put it, and there is no use of flatbed trucks at all.

There is also an excavator and a few small engineering equipment in the south near the "mountain". According to the previous report, the warehouse is being built.

Before it was only used as an entertainment resort island, the facilities here are enough. Before I came, I said that the renovation was completed, but now I found that it was still not enough, and I had to add more facilities.

After the yacht was moored, Zhang Nan said to his four bodyguards, Jamie, Cuenca and others: "Thank you!"

The lead Li Panfeng and Captain Jamie Bostwick certainly said it was not hard work. The bodyguards and crew had experienced a good journey from the South China Sea to the eastern Mediterranean. After entering the Red Sea, it felt like looking at the scenery all the way. good.

In particular, the temporary crew members of the China Navy have never experienced such a voyage before. They have high wages and good living conditions. Although they are busy at work, they still feel like a trip.

Captain Jamie had already passed the ocean-going cargo ship, and this trip can only be regarded as completing one of his duties.

There are many things near the wharf, but it is not messy. Zhang Nan originally wanted to ask about the unloading situation first, but found that the expressions of everyone on the wharf were a little strange.

"What is the problem?"

I asked: It shouldn't be a bad thing. Everyone smiled a little, and their attention seemed to be focused on Zach.

Captain Philip and Thomas, who had just arrived on the island, were also a bit puzzled about the situation: They left the island this morning and went to Ibiza to pick up the boss. Is there anything special on the island this half-day?

Hearing Zhang Nan’s culture, the black buddies immediately said: "Boss, good thing! You bought the manor on Long Island a year ago and dug up a few pots of gold coins at random to make money back from buying the manor.

At that time, my brothers felt that you were a man of God, so it's okay to follow you. "

Listening to these nonsensical words, Zhang Nan suddenly turned his mind and asked, "Did you find something?"

Zach smiled and said, "Yes, boss, just an hour ago."

He said that he took out a small handful of things from his pocket, a dozen golden and silver coins.

"Ancient Roman or ancient Greek gold coins, I don't know how many there are. It may be more than the money you bought this island."

At this point, the guys who arrived on the same boat were basically a "fuck" in their hearts!

Many people here know that Zhang Nan dug up Morgan gold coins when he bought a house, and a few know the magical experience of buying a farm in the UK to dig ancient Roman treasures.

As for the hidden treasures of Hitler and the little devil in the Philippines and Berchtesgaden, that was the result of comprehensive investigation and addition of the treasure map.

This time, I just bought a private island and planned to use it to hide the treasures, but the treasure was dug up again. Is there any reason? !

Zhang Nan took the coins in Zac's hand, exactly half the gold coins and half the silver coins, twelve in total.

The gold coins are very small, a circle smaller than the 50 cents common in China 20 years later, at most only seven or eight grams.

The silver coin is basically the size of a piece of steel later, which is much heavier than the gold coin.

"Where did you find it?"

Don't look at Zhang Nan, don't ask.

"On the side of the excavator, level the foundation, and dig out some stones on the side of the backing. As a result, after digging down about 1 meter, a rock crack of forty to fifty centimeters wide appeared. Several gold coins were found.

Wen Dong went down and looked. It was more than three meters deep and a long slip. The bottom was basically all gold and silver coins, at least tens of thousands, and a few strange things.

We didn't move anything underneath. These 12 pieces were found in the hole and hanging in the middle of the rock. "

This time even Zhang Nan feels incredible!

Is it really that I was so lucky-to hunt for gold bricks in South Africa, this time I bought the island to give away the ancient Roman gold coin cellar?

Take a closer look at the coin in his hand...Zhang Nan said: "This is not a Roman gold coin, but the currency of Carthage."

On one side of the first gold coin is a profile portrait of a woman's head, and on the back is a standing horse. This is the currency of the Carthage Empire earlier than the common Roman currency.

"This is supposed to be a gold and silver alloy Carthaginian fund coin issued between 290 and 270 BC. The gold content is at most 70%, and it is a bit white.

On the front is a profile portrait of the Goddess Tannet of Carthage. I remember that the currency was issued after the Greek forces withdrew from Sicily and before the first Bunno war broke out between Carthage and Rome. During the golden age of Carthage, most of the Mediterranean was the territory and trading area of ​​the Carthaginians. "

A group of people join in the fun to see that ancient Rome has become an earlier Carthage. The once glorious maritime empire was mysterious and remote to Westerners such as Thomas, because the Romans almost defeated Carthage. All the cities, buildings and culture of Carthage on the Mediterranean coast have been completely destroyed!

Carthage, everyone's interest is so great that they can temporarily throw aside more than four thousand tons of treasures and ignore them.

This is the boss’s private island. Although there is no “sovereignty”, the Spanish government has no administrative jurisdiction: no one can come here without permission!

The five gold coins below are similar to the previous one, and the lines seem to be tougher and look the same.

"These pieces may be a little earlier. They should be issued between 320 and 270 BC." Zhang Nan handed a few of them to Guan Xingquan. "This goddess Tannet has a crown of wheat on her head. It should be made by different rulers or different city states.

The craftsmanship of making coins in Carthage is generally higher than that of later ancient Rome. In particular, the refined depiction of horses is famous in the world. It is particularly vivid and has clear lines like the current machine-made coins. Now they are collectors of ancient coins in the world. Popular varieties to chase.

Many of the ancient Roman coins were not round in shape, and the rounded corners were cracked. The lines were not comparable to Carthage currency, especially gold coins.

The only downside is that some gold coins seem to contain almost the same amount of gold, and I don't know why. "

"How much is it worth now?"

The question is Mr. Guan.

"Two or three thousand dollars, at least. The Romans have recovered almost all of the currency seized from Carthage. These are much more expensive than those issued by the Romans."

How did Zhang Nan know so clearly?

Ever since I dug up the treasures of Hoxon, England, I have bought a lot of professional books to supplement the knowledge of ancient western currencies~www.readwn.com~ This will just show off.

In addition to gold coins, five of the other six silver coins have similar styles and are related to horses.

Zhang Nan took one of them and said: "These are not Carthage, nor Roman currency. They are the fairies and horse-drawn carriages from the first country called Syracuse on the island of Sicily in ancient Greece. If I don’t remember the time of issue, Wrong, it should be between 317 BC and 289 BC, which belonged to the same era as these Carthaginian funds.

The person on the front is called the fairy Arethusa, and the inscription is in Greek, meaning the ancient city of Syrah. "

The fairy is surrounded by four dolphins, and the back of the silver coin is decorated with an exquisite racing carriage scene. "This is also related to the Olympic Games. The horse racing carriage was once one of the most popular events in the ancient Greek Olympic Games. Participants have to spend a lot of money to nurture them. Horse breed, so this race is either a city-state king or a nobleman.

In the history of Syracuse, there is a King of Attilas who won the championship in the ancient Olympics horse-drawn carriage race. The scene of the horse-drawn carriage race on the back of the currency should be a little commemorative. "

The other 4 silver coins are similar in appearance, but with more wear and tear and slightly different styles. "These should be earlier, probably the early four drachmas silver coins before 465 BC..."

As for the sixth silver coin, sorry, Zhang Nan told everyone: I don’t know it!
