    It makes sense now why Ladybugs is selling her stack. Clearly this guy is her new boyfriend. Clearly.

    I have no doubt much larger finds exist out there and go unreported because of the laws behind finding treasure in that country.

    The only reason IMHO this was reported was because the person who found it had no idea.

    Auspm. I believe there are a few ship wrecks off the heads in Sydney..I know you lost a boat off the coast a few years back..If ever I could get an underwater detector I will be down to Sydney in a flash to see if I can salvage some PM's from boats like yours. :)

    I suppose you will be off to London now to join in the rush..Can't let the poms have all the Roman gold. :)

    Seriously as you say, I bet a lot of the finds go undetected..I know I would not let on!

    Regards Errol 43

    The wreck of the Silverbar is not far from the Dunbar I take it?
