A team of treasure hunters could be on the verge of unearthing the “world’s largest treasure hoard,” said to be worth over $20 billion.
The team, known as the “Temple Twelve,” have been searching in Finland for the “Lemminkainen Hoard,” which consists of gold, jewels and artifacts, since 1987.
If the hoard is discovered, it is thought it will be the most valuable haul ever found.

    If the hoard exists, that will be huge bonus, if only for tourism, to the country that is found in. I would make a point of going to see a museum that had this stuff stored in it.

    Last April, Mrs. abb & I went to Key West to fulfill a bucket list item - The Atocha Treasure at the Mel Fisher Museum. Worth the trip, imo.

 I've been to Finaland. I can tell you, without any irony, deceit or duplicity, that Finaland is perhaps, the most boring country in the world. I spent at least 3 months there one day. It's in a time warp of boring and uninspiring where, their most interesting thing they have is a sculpture...that any 8th grade welder could make, and probably has. 
 No, no amount of treasure will increase tourism in Finland because there is nothing there worth seeing, even if they find treasure.

    Finnish girls and in particular Lapp girls are well worth the trip to Finland. They’re some of the most hauntingly beautiful women in the world.

 I have been all over the world, Thai girls, actual girls mind you, are on average the most attractive. Not saying there isn't a shiny gem among a see of grey in Finaland, but I certainly didn't see it. I saw a few broads would could tow in a fishing net like no one's business but you wouldn't bring them to the Christmas Party.
