INTERPOL (the International Criminal Police Organization) has issued an alert to specialist dealers and coin collectors. The agency seeks to recover gold coins and plates discovered off the coast of Corsica more than 25 years ago. The 1700 year objects are part of the "Lava Treasure."
Authorities have been attempting to reclaim the Roman-era items after identifying divers who made off with the find from French waters and then sold the haul for millions. France prosecuted eight people implicated in the case, and the nation recovered coins and a plate from the treasure last year worth up to nearly three million dollars. Many unrecovered items could still be on the market. Click here for more background on the case.
Anyone with information about gold coins or plates from the Lava Treasure should contact INTERPOL here.
