As you no last year I managed to find a saxon sceat only to find it had been pieced,  so it whet from coin to pendant and a treasure case,  The British museum had said that hereford were interested in acquiring it,  so I was going to lose one way or another,  so I wrote to the curator of Kington museum told him of the story and he wanted it.  So another email to my flo and he had arranged for it to go to Kington museum farmer was happy for it to go to Kington aswell.
We waived our fee and I got this certificate

Good one Al.  Always nice to be recognised, one to frame. Can't spend it but you can show the Grand Kids. Grin

p.s.   Are you giving the Farmer a photo copy  Roll Eyes

A superb gesture my friend; I suspect that it will eventually pay dividends for you and for our great hobby.
