The Treasure Hunter's Nightmare

[danhughes]

Somebody asks you to use your metal detector to hunt for his mother's wedding ring. He describes it, and where she lost it a decade ago, and you recognize it because you found it three years ago, and sold it to a gold dealer.

What do you tell this person?

You're digging in your own yard and you find a human skeleton. Do you tell the authorities? Even if you know it's going to cost you $5,000, like it did a Canadian citizen a few weeks ago?

Ethical dilemmas, morality problems. What to do?

It's all in my latest In the Treasure Corner podcast, show #127 at http://thetreasurecorner.com.
