According the law ik have to report this coin.
So what happens when you report it? Do they confiscate it, or do you get to keep it?
Here in Holland you can keep your finds after you report it.Quote:

Been many rrports about this here such as a parent threatened with prosecution because his young child was collecting "pretty rocks" at a state park. Another was a gentleman I was chatting with just the other day who's son was fired from his construction job and threatened with criminal charges because he had collected some indian arrowheads he found during a bridge construction job. It's the attitude of our government that they own everything and our archaeologists would rather things be destroyed or left never found if they can't have the items for themselves. (Actually said this way from a prior state archaeologist who got this law passed)
If the goverment take the finds or charge you the are verry wrong!
If the goverment want to save history the beter work together.
Or nobody will record there finds.
And history will be lost. To bad for you guy's.
And not a smart rule.
This year my goverment made metal detecting official legal here. If you find something older then 1500 you have to report it.
The subscribe the place and find and then you can take it home with you.
That's s great rule there Willems! I just wish our politicians were as smart
Correction, the law puts a limit of 50 years old, not 100.
A great find Willems , congratulations !!:notworthy:
Thanks mate.
Pretty sweet coin, Willems. And it cleaned up well, too.
:thumbsup01:Quote:
