LOW STARTING PRICE.MOST OF MY FINDS I BUY OFF FELLOW DETECTORISTS BUT SOME I HAVE FOUND MYSELF OVER MANY YEARS. ITEMS OF HUGE HISTORICAL VALUE ARE SOLD TO MUSEUMS TO PRESERVE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE PAST.ALL THE ARTEFACTS ARE CAREFULLY RESEARCHED TO IDENTIFY THEM AND I DRAW UPON MY EXPERIENCE OF WORKING IN A MUSEUM FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND BY USING LOTS OF REFERENCE BOOKS.
ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK
AND THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!
