Coins found in Regensburg ghetto dig worth millions
Workers uncover a 400 coin gold hoard at a Regensburg site once a Jewish ghetto destroyed in 1519. Mayor Hans Schaidinger says the Hungarian minted 14th century coins likely belonged to a wealthy resident and were buried in a basement for an emergency. The city plans to claim the collection as property during preparations for a power transformer station. The local Jewish community now numbers about 70.
