Find in Bulgaria

Wes' grandparents told us about this incredible find in Bulgaria. This 87 year old man turned in these gold plates he had found when he was younger to the Bulgarian National Museum of History. They were 24 carat gold, bound by three rings and had writings and drawings on them....remind you of something? Apparently they date back to 600 BC.
