TEL AVIV, Israel, July 10 (UPI) -- A hoard of buried gold coins uncovered in an Israeli coastal city, valued at $100,000, is one of the country's largest-ever such finds, archaeologists say.
The hoard of 108 gold coins were minted in Egypt about 250 years before being buried in the floor of a 13th century fortress at Apollonia Park, about 15 miles north of Tel Aviv, Ha'aretz reported Sunday.
