Read that this find does not come under the Treasure Trove act.

Amazing last Henry III coin found over 250 years ago. Only 8 in existence. One of my favorite YouTube I’d metal detecting in UK and mudlarking on the Thames.

That is correct, a treasure trove is defined as 10 or more coins. The question is: did the detectorist have permission from the landowner to detect on that land? Did the two of them have an agreement for sharing proceeds? If they didn't have any agreements, their solicitors will be busy.
