"Preventing theft and illicit disposal of heritage metals"

 

Nick a bit of lead from an old building's roof in the UK, you'll have a lot of problems getting anyone to take it. Nick a bit of bronze from an old field,  if you want @findsorguk to launder it on their database, just turn up - no need for any ID or signed documents assigning title - and show them where you want them to say you found it.

Have the rural crime officers ever done a raid on an FLO's office to inspect the documentation of the items they have in there?
