Indeed - Hackpen Hill is surely hardly devoid of archaeology (earthworks aplenty on the map). They should have 'sown' £5 coins, there would have been proper incentive then (and more interesting for someone to find in future than a 'token'.)

Seems for every positive story about metal detecting (eg this one - Norfolk just brimming with finds that people kindly bring to official attention)

..is tempered with the downside (eg this one - Roman site in Norfolk being excavated is found with too many holes in it one morning)
