a maximum group of 6 only

I think some of our membership would qualify as Pros - but lets all remain unpaid Amateurs

Yep - but still calling us AMATEUR -

Frome Hoard was slightly larger I think - 52503. !!!

10 years and 8 and a half years - not sure if I agree with that - seems a little steep when you compare what violent criminals seem to get these days

Bunch of HYPOCRITS - bet they DROVE up to the monument.

I think in our community, someone will always know who the baddies are.

WHAT - another TWO AMATEURS - so what are the professionals finding then ?????

Those amateur detectorists really are a lucky bunch - bet it makes the professional detectorists really jealous !!!!!!!

Sour grapes methinks

Interesting article - however the term Treasure Hunter always annoys me - If this is what people think we are, then I would have been out of business many years ago.

Why do people keep saying "amateur"

nice find though

So - its official - Tom is an amateur - well show me a professional then !!!!

Sounds like you need a clean up crew to give it a good going over. Bit of a challenge for a club maybe ???

Unlike some other large finds - Dave let the Archys dig it out in order to preserve all aspects of the hoard and its surroundings. Well done that man
