Not sure who is the bigger scumbag in this situation, the detectorist who’s holding out for a ridiculous payday (defo deserves something for it, but 3.5 mill?), or whoever might want to buy it just to hide it from the world in a private collection.
Edit: To all those saying ‚the state sets the price‘; you are all correct. That doesn’t mean that the detectorist has to accept the full price, it’s just what it’s valued at primarily for insurance purposes.
A part of British history is being held to ransom
Cmon you’re the British Museum, just steal that shit.
Technically it isn’t worth anything. Any price is holding it to ransom.
This is silly.
The older I get, the less time I have for this shit.
Someone found it. Give them a reward. Arbitrary sum that has be fundraised? Multiple multiple people faffing about with this? For a made-up number?
*What you do with it if it doesn’t go into a museum*
*What worth if sold to private and tucked away from almost all eyes? A hard-on because you are rich and special?*
*As I say to my children – can we not just share?*
In conclusion: pathetic all round.
Off now to weep about humanity.
*edited because I clearly can’t spell
Ugh I really hope this comes through! I made my donation, anyone else that is able to and has interest to should do the same!
If I was getting that much I wouldn’t hold out for an extra £100k. That seems a bit harsh if it goes to private sale just over that.
It’s the British museum, they can afford to buy it today if they want to.
They are £100k away from raising as much money as they want to from their members, they are not £100k away from being able to buy the piece.
