<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dltsrq, post: 8664127, member: 75482&quot;]PAS (Portable Antiquities Scheme) is a voluntary system for recording finds that do not qualify as &#039;treasure&#039;. More than a million objects have been recorded to date. I think most would agree the more the better. Normally, a single gold coin would not qualify as treasure. Individual coins qualify only if deemed to be of &quot;outstanding historical, archaeological or cultural importance&quot;. An Allectus? The determination is made at a coroner&#039;s inquest. If declared &#039;treasure&#039;, the Crown has the option of either retaining the find and paying a reward equal to the fair market value or, as is frequently the case, returning the treasure to the finder and landowner who are then free to do with it as they please, often sending it on to auction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
