加州夫妇在土中发现价值千万的金币A California couple found a stash of gold coins buried on their property last year valued at as much as $10m, rare coin dealers have said.加利福尼亚州一对夫妇在他们的地产中发现了一罐埋在地下的金币，价值 1000 万美元。The coins were buried in rusted old metal cans The 1,427 coins, which date from 1847-1894, were never circulated and are in mint condition（暂新的）, numismatist（钱币奖章收藏家） David Hall told the Associated Press. The unnamed couple found them buried in rusting（生锈的） metal cans under a tree while on a walk last April. It is seen as the largest haul of buried treasure in US history. "We've seen shipwrecks in the past where thousands of gold coins were found in very high grade, but a buried treasure of this sort is unheard of," David McCarthy of currency firm Kagin's, who is advising the couple, told Reuters news agency. "I've never seen this face value in North America and you never see coins in the condition we have here." The couple live in a rural area of California known as Gold Country for the swarms of prospectors who descended on the region during the 19th Century gold rush. They found the coins in an area of their land they called Saddle Ridge, and the coin dealers who have seen the haul have taken to calling it the Saddle Ridge Hoard. It is a mystery who buried the coins - and why. Mr Hall of Professional Coin Grading Service of Santa Ana, California, which recently authenticated the coins, told the Associated Press the coins' face value adds up to about $27,000. But some of the coins are so rare they could sell for $1m each, The couple plan to sell the coins on Amazon.
