Not in it Fer th' Munny: But UK Detectorists 'Getting Screwed by the Valuers'

Brexiter, Tommy Robinson fan, 'white British male' and self-appointed 'Somerset's best detectorist' Sean O'Brien has this to say about the FLO's excited announcement of the donation of an Anglo-Saxon gold pendant to the local museum

Lovely jubbly find, this is what it's all about, plus the money if we don't get screwed by the valuers

But of course, if asked, metal detectorists will say they are "not in it for the money, but the love of history". Some of them are lying. How many?

Here is Mr O'Brien boasting about his 'penatration' ("damp soil conditions y'know") allowing some destructively irresponsible deep digging.

The whole account makes predictable but depressing reading (unless he's a foreign-paid troll).
