Belgian Coins
After the rattling of a shell-shaped container, employees demolished a house in France and were shocked when one of them found 600 gold coins in the cellar. The coins were Belgian and dated from 1870, which was obvious because King Leopold II was depicted on them. The coins may be worth up to €100,000, according to reports.

Unique Door Stop
This is a bit of a puzzle because it’s difficult to comprehend how a bust ends up as a doorstop. But that’s exactly what happened; it took 270 years for everyone to realize the person who left was a doorknob. Edmé Bouchardon, a French sculptor, created the bust used as a doorstop in 1728. It was discovered in Balintore, Scotland, leaving a door open on an abandoned shed. It was a bust of politician Sir John Gordon, estimated to be worth $1.8 million at the time.
