<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Chip Kirkpatrick, post: 5136982, member: 101265&quot;]As both an individual detectorist and a shareholder in a treasure hunting company, I can state the laws and regulations concerning this are confusing and ever changing. Archeologists hold the upper hand and have an undeserved air of superiority. I have been lucky to deal with one who respects my efforts and appreciates my finds. I have placed a number of finds in museums and never sold any. In fact I refuse the title “treasure Hunter” so beloved by many detectorists and the public. I think the title depicts an effort to make a profit and I do not sell nor trade but often give items away. I have found and returned 30 items with values of over $8000 for a wedding ring all for free. I do it for my pleasure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
