The Melsonby Hoard was discovered by a metal detectorist in 2021 & subsequently declared Treasure. The Yorkshire Museum aim to raise £500,000 to acquire & conserve the hoard, keeping it in a public collection. Help keep the hoard in Yorkshire & donate today at: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/save-the-m...
Looking forward to being in Rhyl again on 5th April for a Finds Surgery #ResponsibleDetecting #RecordYourFinds with @findsorguk.bsky.social Spread the word
Great to see colleagues from Cardiff and Swansea getting a mention - well done 👏 www.herefordtimes.com/news/2495865...
Love this republican denarius struck for Q. Metellus Pius c. 81 BC. Elephant on the reverse and what I want to believe is a diplodocus (and not a ?stork) on the obverse. Found in Cheshire and reported to @susieflo.bsky.social this week. Record: finds.org.uk/database/art... #FindsFriday #RomanBritain
We've had to reschedule .... so same time, same place, but on 17th January. Spread the word!

Had a blast at the PAS annual meeting in London yesterday! It was so nice to have the PAS Cymru team all together in one place for the first time ever, and lovely to meet many Finds Liaison Officers from across the border!
