ISRAEL-ARCHAEOLOGY-GOLD-HISTORY

A picture shows some of the gold coins recently found on the seabed off Israel's Mediterranean coast, in the Israeli town of Caesarea, on February 18, 2015. Scuba divers have discovered the largest trove of gold coins ever found off Israel's Mediterranean coast -- about 2,000 pieces dating back more than 1,000 years, the country's antiquities authority said. Experts from the authority called to the site uncovered "almost 2,000 gold coins in different denominations" circulated by the Fatimid Caliphate, which ruled much of the Middle East and North Africa from 909 to 1171.
