The Treasure Hunter's Handbook: Britain's buried treasure - and how to find it (Paperback)
Brian Grove (author)Published: 06/05/2010
Who hasn't dreamed of discovering some immensely valuable piece of buried treasure in a field - and thereby perhaps making a fortune? Brian Grove describes the many different types of treasure that can be found, and where they can be found. There are chapters on:
• Metal Detecting
• Prospecting for Gold
• Dump Hunting
• Beachcombing
• Fossil Hunting
• Wreck Diving.
Uniquely, the book combines essential information on the practicalities of treasure hunting with inspiring stories of people who have found valuable hoards - like Eric Lawes who in 1992 discovered the Hoxne Treasure in Suffolk, and received 1.75 million from the British Museum!
