Awesome find, but this one apparently doesn't turn out like it should. This quote comes to mind:
"It's actually a story of how to do things right," he said. "The metal detectorist was licensed. He had permission to look for finds like that. He immediately called the heritage officers."
That's right, kids. Leave these things to the experts. Did licensed boy get to keep the treasure? Nooooooope:
"These coins and this hoard [are] now part of our cultural heritage. And I think that's a very good outcome of this story."
And I think the outcome of the story sucks. Here's the link to the article, which has some cool pics and the video story that goes along with it:
