From the Treasure Registrar's Twitter feed:
"196 people waived their right to Treasure rewards last year, helping museums acquire finds at less expense. Here's 1: http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/519548"
and from the Treasure Registrar website:
http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/532283
"Disposition: The finders, from the Weald and Downland Metal Detecting Club, as well as the landowner, waived their right to a reward for the addenda coins to allow them to be acquired by Guildford Museum at no expense."
Not all bad news :)
