Well they may have done - otherwise they probly wouldn't've wanted it all over the press. And if they did report, then WONDERFUL!!! More power to their elbows.

But statistically, the likelihood is that only 1 find in FIFTEEN is reported by detectorists as a whole.

So if that was a typical cross-section of detectorists at the meet, for each of the items reported and publicised, there's another FIFTEEN equally spectacular or interesting items that have disappeared into the black hole of private collections. Or that're about to make their finders a nice few quid on ebay....

I'll be interested to see how many other people here are as enthusiastic as Pete.
