How on earth can detecting metal be illegal anywhere, for what reason Nope, he ain't. Think a person needs a license to do it legally. I liken it to a sign I saw in a pub once "Don't steal, the Government hates competition". I presume items found metal detecting would be claimed by the Govt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Only if they are over a certain age and deemed treasure. The finder and landowner then each get a share of its market value IIRC.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
