UK Metal Detectorist Exhibits Finds

Metal detectoring as a hobby has been subject to ever tightening regulation in the UK. Still, many remain passionate about it and the most successful have fascinating collections of artifacts and other finds. Near Manchester, UK, a detectorist who spent six years near the ancient Roman site at Warburton is putting his collection on display at a local museum. What a fantastic way to "share the knowledge." It's possible this may start a trend in the UK, possibly forging a new level of cooperation between detectorists and local archaeologists.
