The Civil Guard has seized more than 1,500 pieces of great heritage and historical value in Mallorca, after discovering that three German citizens residing on the island had accumulated them over the years, allegedly illegally. Among the confiscated items are 1,574 ancient coins, amphorae, unguent jars, lamps, jugs, jewelry, sculptures, and swords. The investigation began in October 2024, when an elderly woman was stopped at Palma airport carrying approximately 50 coins dating from the Greek era to the Middle Ages. Her cooperative attitude allowed officers to locate the rest of the collection at her residence in Cales de Mallorca (Manacor).
