A copper alloy ingot from the from the Scandinavian pre-Roman Iron Age that emerged from Sardal on the west coast of Sweden, in 2022 is the first of its kind ever found in Sweden. An analysis of its composition has found it is also a metallurgic twin to metal hoards from the same period found in Poland. It was actually discovered almost 50 years ago by the Pedersen family when they were digging a fence post hole in their garden.
