An amateur treasure hunter has uncovered a hoard of Viking artifacts that is believed to have been buried on the Isle of Man more than 1,000 years ago.
The collection includes treasures such as a large silver brooch and an exceedingly rare solid gold arm-band. The find is a momentous discovery, dated roughly A.D. 950 and estimated to be worth several thousand pounds, the Manx National Heritage Museum said in a statement.
