mn90403 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Some may have wondered what would happen to metal detectorists in the UK if they try to get away with not reporting the finds in the proper fashion.

Steve Herschbach Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Yes, when people break laws in the U.K. they are punished, as they should be. Ripping off the landowner in particular is really bad. The guy trusted then and thanks the thanks he gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
