For many years, the house on the outskirts of town remained abandoned. After it was purchased, the new owner opted to repair the flooring and hired workers to tear it out. During the renovation, the crew unearthed an antique chest hidden beneath the first layer of the floor.
After some discussion, they chose to open it on camera to document the moment.
The chest was undoubtedly over a century old and likely wasn’t concealed by the previous occupants, as no renovations had been done to the property. They attempted to lift the chest with a winch and ropes, but it was far too heavy. The rusted lock had corroded so badly that they had to use a grinder to break it down. Eventually, they resorted to sawing off the hinges when the lid wouldn’t budge.
To their surprise, instead of finding junk, they uncovered neatly stacked silver ingots within. The owner was promptly called to the scene, and he, in turn, contacted an appraiser.
The treasure was valued at 15 million rubles, based solely on its weight. Given the historical significance of the ingots, the owner might expect an even higher price.
Discovering a silver hoard is a rare stroke of luck, and at the very least, the homeowner recouped his investment in the property.
