[meteorite-list] OT - Gold Hoard Found in England

[Greg Hupe]

Hello List and All Metal Detector Enthusiasts (whether it be meteorites or 
other goodies...),

As a side benefit to those of who hunt for meteorites using a metal 
detector, we some times find other interesting or valuable objects that are 
not meteorite related.

I thought I would share this story as an example of what "could" be found 
while hunting for meteorites using a metal detector.

What is really cool about this story is that the finder was using an old 
detector, can you imagine what is deeper below their feet as they dug up the 
artifacts on the surface!! Maybe the authorities have older equipment there 
too!! I think also that the true story is all about good luck and the 
willingness to get permission and agreements from property owners!

Good luck to all on your current and/or future hunts!!
