Liu Fei’s Treasure!

A 2,100-year-old mausoleum built for a king named Liu Fei has been discovered in modern-day Xuyi County in Jiangsu, China. Liu Fei died in 128 B.C. during the 26th year of his rule over a kingdom named Jiangdu, which was part of the Chinese empire. Although the mausoleum had been plundered, archaeologists found that it still contained more than 10,000 artifacts, including treasures made of gold, silver, bronze, jade and lacquer. Liu Fei's financial needs were not neglected, as the archaeologists found an ancient "treasury" holding more than 100,000 Ban Liang coins, which contain a square hole in the center and were created by the first emperor of China after the country was unified. 

Sources say that a large amount of this treasure went missing during the excavation of the mausoleum. Some say that the treasure was brought to Colorado by an archaeologist from Aurora. It's said to be hidden somewhere safe, to keep it from falling into the wrong hands..

Congrats to LostinDenver for being FTF!!

Had to wait out some boys playing on the bridge. Was able to spot it right away but the camo is good. Thanks for the fun, Dawkinakus311!
