<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Woodhouse, post: 26388745, member: 174272&quot;]What area did you detect in the UK during your visit? Most of my detecting has taken place close to places I have lived in since 1988. From 1988-97 I lived in 2 locations around the West Midlands and Shropshire and was a member of the Bloxwich Metal Detecting Club. Normally we found a mix of roman/hammered and the odd celtic coin. I moved to Weston Super Mare in North Somerset in 1997 (change of employment) and joined the local club here in Weston. Again the range of finds is similar. One of the members of the Bloxwich Club called Terry Herbert was the man who found the famous Staffordshire Hoard of anglo saxon artifacts that were valued at £3.2 Million.&nbsp; <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/stoke/hi/people_and_places/history/newsid_8352000/8352927.stm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/stoke/hi/people_and_places/history/newsid_8352000/8352927.stm" rel="nofollow">BBC - Staffordshire Hoard: the story, facts &amp; figures</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
