In 2021, Mr. Narasimha in Pembarthi village, India hired a group of workers to help him dig the foundation to build a house on his land. Surprisingly, while digging at a depth of 0.6m, the group of workers unearthed a huge treasure. This treasure was a jar containing many artifacts made of gold, silver, and precious stones.

The group of workers immediately informed the land owner. Mr. Narasimha also informed the local authorities about the discovery. Several local government officials arrived at the scene. After checking, they confirmed that the jar contained 22 gold earrings and objects, 5 silver necklaces and objects, and 26 silver bars.

The total weight of gold in this huge treasure is 189,820g and silver is 1,727g. It is estimated that these items are worth billions of dong.

Authorities ordered Mr. Narasimha to stop digging or constructing until further notice. The items inside the jar were recovered. Archaeologists believe the items date back to the Kakatiya Dynasty, which dates back to the 12th-14th centuries. They hypothesize that some gangs illegally excavated the tomb to find treasure and left them on the site.

This is not the first time that jewellery and gold coins have been found. Earlier, the Pimpri-Chinchwad city police seized a huge treasure of 216 ancient gold coins and a bronze vessel worth over 1.3 million Indian Rupees.

They also seized the seal of King Raja Muhammad Shah from 1720 to 1750 AD along with gold coins.

The value of each coin in the treasure is estimated at 60,000 to 70,000 Indian Rupees, or about 19 to 22 million VND, with a total value of more than 1.3 million Indian Rupees, equivalent to more than 4.1 billion VND. During the investigation, the police discovered that these gold coins were found after two workers were digging the ground and accidentally discovered this treasure.
