A lot of us think of finding ancient or antique cool stuff rather than valuable stuff, this would be a very cool thing to find.

I wonder if it was used as a seal on letters with wax.

“His family were known for gleaning wealth from a hoard of valuables left in their safekeeping during the English Civil War which were never reclaimed.”
******************************
“I say - isn’t that the gold that Robin of Locksley’s father gave to us for safe-keeping?”
“Yes - sadly he died in the war.”

Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones was metal detecting for years. His website even had a few recommended models for sale.

Sir Matthew was elected to parliament as MP for Newark in 1701, but eventually fell foul of the law. He died in Fleet Prison in 1734. A Democrat, or Labour MP, obviously..............

Okay, 350 years old is not “ancient,” and it wasn’t *that* Sheriff of Nottingham.
I despise clickbait headlines.

That’s why the detectorist got his ring back. If it had been a noteworthy enough historical artifact it would have been put in a museum. AFTER paying the detectorist the going rate for the item.
The U.K. really does have a good system set up for this stuff. It promotes the discovery of the stuff, and the knowledge of England’s history.
