if most of us check under our beds the only thing we'll probably find is some loose change hair balls and if you're a guy well some old sticky socks what else could go under there right some have found some pretty valuable items under their beds and others have found them in even more arbitrary locations so today we'll be looking at treasure found in some really strange places you might want to stick around until the end because number eleven on this list is something you definitely won't believe [Music] [Applause] a man uncovered a treasure trove of ancient history while trying to fix his toilet if you've ever plunged a toilet you know that fixing one is a dirty job and the only treasure you're going to find is not really something worth keeping fortunately Luciano Phegley Yano found something that he definitely wanted to keep when he and his two sons were trying to fix a toilet from a serious sewage issue the faggio nose first stumbled upon a false floor while looking for the pipe and then another level filled with stone from the Middle Ages they began to notice more and more remnants of ancient life when the word got out officials were sent to their home and faggiano had to halt his search for a sewage pipe a professional archaeologist was then sent a year later to oversee the excavation which resulted in a trove of artifacts there was ancient pottery all different kinds of jewelry Roman devotional bottles long-forgotten force ghosts and other relics it was abundant and spanned over several millennia beginning with the original Greek settlers different chambers showed up during the digging an ancient tomb that was attributed to the mists appearance who inhabited the region over two millennia ago a Roman granary and cisterns a chamber where nuns used to prepare bodies of the deceased several centuries earlier and the list went on many of the artifacts found were seized by authorities but luckily faggiano was able to keep enough artifacts to open a museum instead of a trattoria prison there's nothing good about prison like you have to sleep on those tiny beds hold on tightly to your soap in the bathroom and sometimes even do community service these prison inmates however had a pretty good day in their prison while they were doing agricultural work on land owned by the Pleven prison things were smooth until they accidentally discovered a horde of over 7,000 silver coins minted by the Ottoman Empire and hidden into treasure pots the 7046 Ottoman Turkish silver coins in question are of the so-called axis the main monetary unit of the Ottoman Empire according to archaeologist vladimir and made enough this amount of money could buy three houses in owed Rijn a journey which is a former capital of the Ottoman Empire in a major city in today's European Turkey unfortunately the prisoners good day only lasted so long because they were not able to even keep one coin it's a shame when a good deed goes unnoticed in a prison of all places so close guys so close inside a piano here's a guy who did get to keep his coins and to make it even better these coins were gold the piano was donated to bishops Castle Community College by Meg and Graham Hemmings while they were getting rid of things to downsize they probably would have never donated the piano if they had known what was hiding inside of it while working on the piano tuning technician mr. Backhouse found seven clothbound packets underneath the keys which contained 500,000 which contained 500,000 euros 570 1974 and fifty cents worth of gold coins the golden coins were made up of gold sovereigns and half sovereigns dating back from the reigns of Victoria Edward the seventh and George fifth mr. black house got to keep half of the gold coins while the other half was given to the college unfortunately the original owners meg and Graham were given nothing gold in the tank Nick meat operates tank salon a company that maintains a fleet of battlfield tanks for recreational and corporate use me love for tanks caused him to make a trade of 42,000 dollars worth of vehicles for a tank listed on ebay and yes you heard that right he bought the tank off eBay meet with the help of the tanks a lot staff gave the tank a thorough examination when they received it they did some maintenance on it replacing worn parts and giving it a general facelift so it would be ready to join the tanks a light fleet while restoring the tank the team found some ammo in one of the fuel canisters and set it aside so they could turn it in to the authorities this find was just the beginning when they realized there was something wrong with the second fuel canister they decided to check it as well at first they thought it was filled with guns but when they realized it was extremely heavy they weren't sure about the guess anymore when the fuel canister was finally open Meads friend Todd reached inside and pulled out something that no one else would have imagined a bar of solid gold he reached back inside and ended up pulling out a total of five billion bars unfortunately these guys were too scared to get in trouble by the authorities and ended up turning the bar of gold in with the ammo frozen at first these law enforcement officers found nothing while searching a vacant apartment but when they opened the fridge they were presented with something way better than mums leftover spaghetti and meatballs half a billion roubles yeah you heard that right half a billion that's over seven trillion four hundred million dollars so next time you open your fridge hope for some ripples instead of food inside a book we're about to give you a great reason why you need to read and also a good reason not to use newts as your bookmarks owner cat mo Heron collects the small pieces of history she finds within books she sells and her store vent books mismo Harun says she has found glorious ode letters photos and the weird things that people decide to use as bookmarks which for some reason includes nude photos if she can find the owners of the things found in the book she tries to return them including the nudes imagine the faces of people when she gives them a nude photo of themselves mismo Harun was even lucky enough to find a hundred and eighty five dollars in a book small treasure agreed but she never found the owners of the money gold mine in the garden we all find unusual things in our homes things that seem out of place or even that we aren't aware of like a book or a pair of old shoes left behind by someone living in the same house before you but these are small and ordinary Anthony Dolan modestly owned a property of 16 and a half acres he took a casual stroll once in his property and spotted a tunnel opening in the ground strange for sure but one would be wary of entering such a tunnel but mr. Dulles was no ordinary man and when he did enter the tunnel he realized there's a gold mine inside apparently there were many such gold mines around but he did not get around to checking if they contain gold he then sold the land expecting a great return but that wasn't to be trust is more valuable than gold any day garbage we have heard of stories where something of value is accidentally thrown away in the garbage it is usually a piece of paper a bill or someone's telephone number heck we all have done that Georgia County has its trash trucks bringing about 300 tons of garbage every day needless to say every bit of this is not of any value because well it's garbage the solid waste director Johnnie Vickers once received a distress call wherein a woman said that she accidentally threw away her jewelry worth a hundred thousand dollars mr. Vickers immediately assemble the team and with great striving they eventually found the garbage bag containing the jewelry a bit careless on the woman's part don't you think another garbage story it is clear by now that garbage in general is great value a woman once found a large painting stuffed in garbage bags and when she got it examined by art experts it turned out to be a painting by Rufino Tamayo that was stolen and guess what the FBI still has a case pending on the theft an inexpensive painting we all have bought cheap things off a flea market or gypsy sellers thinking that they aren't expensive they can't harm this story is of a man who was one such believer and purchased an old painting at a flea market when he removed the canvas to fix it he found the stuffing inside which looked like a piece of large paper no prizes for guessing it was the original copy of the Declaration of Independence the date - on it said 1776 so that there's enough credibility inside people a rather morbid title but that's what it is we find happiness and friendships and other people but when you find something close to 2.3 million dollars you want them closer a Lebanese man once searched by the authorities at the Johannesburg Airport and when they scanned his body it revealed almost 220 gemstones inside his stomach the authorities were acting on a tip and while they suspected him to carrying diamonds they certainly did not expect him to carry them literally inside his gut a few laxatives and the man had to well for the lack of a better word expel the stones out of his bite he was later subjected to the court and the stones were presented their harsh way to cure constipation really birdsnest stealing is a crime but only if the one doing it is human julia bowler from sheffield once left her engagement on the window ledge while taking his shower only to learn that it's missing the usual suspects were questioned but they all denied when they eventually gave up hope almost three years later they found the ring in the Buried nest of a magpie well well under the bed well we all pick up stuff that we spot in random places as souvenirs these are pebbles or stones on a beach or bowls and Coulter Ephraim restaurants a fisherman from the Philippines once found his anchor stuck to an enormous stone which she kept under his bed as a lucky charm almost a decade later he would hand it over to his aunt who worked with the government upon getting it inspected by the experts the stone or rather a pearl was found to be worth more than a hundred million dollars lucky charm indeed in a sofa three students found as much as forty thousand dollars in their $20.00 sofa being good Samaritans they returned the money to whom it belonged in this case a 91 year old widow who had stashed it away a toy a woman once found a simple looking toy when she tried to inspect it she found something inside upon opening it she found one diamond ring and about a hundred diamond stones a case of pure fortune on the flip side there are theories to this case which either negate the discovery or give a new perspective some say that the whole thing has been staged and is fake while few others say that this is a classic case of a curse passed through jewelry which one would you be interested in [Music]
