Among the treasures found were silver coins, pearls and ornaments.

The treasure was discovered by the 13-year-old schoolboy Luka Malashnichenko and his teacher Renee Sean during the exploration of the German island of Rügen in the Baltic Sea. With the help of metal detectors, they found a brilliant object, but on closer examination it turned out that this is an ancient silver coin.

The treasure belonged to the legendary King of Denmark and Norway Harald Gormsson, better known as Harald I Sinezuby. By the way, Harald is considered one of the Catholic saints - in 965 he baptized Denmark.
