susanfoster+FollowMetal Detectorists Are Striking Gold!Britain is basically living out a real-life treasure hunt right now—thanks to metal detectorists! This year saw a record-breaking number of ancient finds, from a stash of silver coins possibly buried before the Battle of Hastings to rare Roman carriage bling. Nearly all these discoveries came from regular folks with metal detectors, not pros. The British Museum is loving it, calling these hobbyists “vital” to preserving history. Who knew your neighbor could be sitting on a medieval jackpot? #History #treasurehunt #metaldetecting20Share
