Rare 3,000-year-old golden torc unveiled to the public in Belfast

Rare 3,000-year-old golden torc unveiled to the public in Belfast... by David Young 

The golden torc was dug up in Co Fermanagh four years ago by a local man who at first thought it was a spring from a car engine. It was another two years before Ronnie Johnston figured it was rather more significant after noticing something similar in a treasure hunters’ magazine.  The item was subsequently declared a valuable artifact at a special treasure inquest at Northern Ireland Coroner’s Court and ultimately purchased by Stormont’s Department of Culture, Arts, and Leisure.
