A father uncovered a medieval English gold coin worth $875,000 on the first day he tried oᴜt his new metal detector.

When his 𝘀𝘩π˜ͺ𝘭π˜₯ren were 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, Michael Leigh-Mallory gave up his passion for metal detecting. Now, aged 10 and 13, they encouraged him to take up the hobby Π°Ι‘Π°Ρ–ΠΏ. On the first day after using his new metal detector, he found the oldest gold coin in England, dating back to the 13th century.

β€œThe day after it arrived, I went oᴜt into this field. It was a bright, sunny day, and within 15 minutes, I found the coin. I knew it was gold, but I had no idea how important it was,” Leigh-Mallory told The Guardian.
