<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PaddyB, post: 8160829, member: 40017&quot;]The way it works in the UK is that finds like this should be reported to the Finds Officer, and if it meets the criteria then goes to the Coroner for a decision. If, as in this case, it is declared as treasure, it is formally valued (at full retail value) and offered to museums within the UK at that price. If sold, the money is paid in full to the finder and/or land owner depending on the agreement they had in place. If it is not sold, the hoard is returned to the finder/land owner.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
