There are 3 people now claiming the finders rights to this hoard. It's all going to get very messy I am sure. Isn't it funny how when things like this are found it tends to make people show their shall we say not best side. I like the bit where the fella is detecting around the area whilst they are excavating. The Whole area should have been a no go for anyone with a detector whilst the excavation was going on and been cordoned off. A stunning find though.

Brilliant hoard find,it does just show that there is still plenty of great finds to be had.
And with regards to the "who found what squabble!!"...well there are  obviously some benefits to being a "lone wolf" detectorist  ::)
Mind you I wouldn't mind a bit a detecting company from time to time...any offers ?
Good hunting.and thanks for reading..👍
