Default Viking treasure hoard uncovered

BBC NEWS | UK | England | North Yorkshire | Viking treasure hoard uncovered

The most important Viking treasure find in Britain for 150 years has been unearthed
by a father and son while metal detecting in Yorkshire.

Talk about a cool find, a one in 10 life times find.

Can you imagine the thrill they must have felt when the dug that target.
