(Zenger News) -  More than 6,000 silver coins from the late Middle
Ages were discovered during a renovation project on a farm in the
village of Rainbach, Upper Austria.

The museum said the silver coins, which were handed over to the
OÖ Lande-Kultur GmbH museum in Upper Austria, also known as
Linz Schlossmuseum, “were wrapped in fabric and kept in a clay
lidded pot.”

The museum said that it is unclear how the coins got there and
who they belonged to. It is not known whether the coins that
were recently discovered will go on display at the museum.

(FoxNews) – A rare 1776 Continental dollar that was bought at a French flea
market for less than $1 is worth nearly $100,000.

The coin was purchased by a person who has remained anonymous to this
point for 56 cents in June 2018, according to a statement from Professional
Coin Grading Services (PCGS), which graded the coin.

"The seller had a cookie box full of coins and medals for sale and, while the
buyer was looking through it, the seller pulled out another box of coins with
this coin on top," PCGS wrote in the statement. "The buyer unfamiliar with
this piece asked a price, and the seller said 50 [Euro] cents. The coin was purchased, and the new owner later Googled ‘Continental Currency’ and
‘1776’ to discover what he had. Believing he had found a treasure, he took
it to a local coin dealer for authenticity, who was unsure and suggested he
send it to the United States for authentication."

(FoxNews) – An extremely rare 1894 dime, one of only 24 minted and once
owned by former Lakers owner Jerry Buss, has sold at auction for $1.32
million, including the buyer’s commission.

Only nine of the rare 1894-S dimes are known to exist, according to the
auction house Stack’s Bowers Galleries. The dime was auctioned Thursday
at the American Numismatic Association World’s Fair of Money in Chicago.

Before the switch to steel took place, a handful of cents were minted 
by mistake in copper, making a 1943 Bronze Lincoln cent coin (above) one of the most famous coins in U.S. history: 76 years later, the very
first of these error coins ever discovered will make history when
Heritage Auctions offers the rarity Jan. 10 in Orlando, Florida.
