In 2019, a couple were renovating their 18th-century property in the village of Ellerby, near Hull, when they made the discovery of a lifetime beneath the kitchen floor.
Buried inside a small cup were over 260 gold coins from the 17th and 18th centuries, dating from the reigns of King James I through to King George I.
