Bronze Age torcs unearthed near Carlisle worth six figures
Two hobbyist metal detectorists unearthed three Bronze Age gold bracelets near Carlisle, England, dating to about 1100 B.C. with a combined weight of 18.27 ounces (1.14 pounds); they’re valued at around $400,000 and are under review by the British Museum to determine if they qualify as treasure, which could lead to a museum purchase with proceeds shared among the finders and the landowner.
