Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Grouville Hoard is a hoard of an estimated 70,000 late Iron Age and Roman coins reported in June 2012. They were discovered by metal detectorists Reg Mead and Richard Miles in a field at an undisclosed location in the parish of Grouville on the east side of Jersey in the Channel Islands. It is the largest hoard ever found in Jersey, and the first major archaeological find made by metal detectorists in the island.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Le trésor de Grouville est un trésor archéologique découvert en juin 2012 sur le territoire de la paroisse de Grouville sur l'île anglo-normande de Jersey et composé de nombreuses pièces de monnaie datant de la fin de l'Âge du fer.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Der Hortfund von Grouville (englisch Grouville Hoard), gefunden östlich von Saint Helier auf der Kanalinsel Jersey, ist nach Expertenmeinung der größte je in Westeuropa gefundene Hort. Angeregt durch die Erwähnung von früheren Münzfunden hatten zwei Sondengänger während 30 Jahren ein Feld in Grouville abgesucht, bevor ihnen dieser Fund 2012 gelang. Die Entdeckung von vielleicht 70.000 mit Ton zu einem Klumpen von etwa 140 × 80 × 20 cm verbackenen keltischen Münzen aus der jüngeren Eisenzeit (etwa 50 v. Chr.) war mit zwei goldenen Halsringen und einer silbernen Fibel verbunden. Das Material wiegt etwa 750 kg. Der materielle Wert kann sich auf einige Millionen Pfund belaufen. Auf den Kanalinseln wurden bereits 14 kleinere Horte gefunden.
