He should have never reported it. Especially in socialist Britian.

He should have never reported it The Brits pay a good and fair price to the finder in "Treasure Trove" cases. Fourth Century Roman coins are the Ford Pintos of Roman numismatics. You can buy 'em by the hundreds on eBay. The historical value may be greater than the collector's value and the finder will benefit as a result.

It might be kind of hard to keep secret. I doubt ancient Roman coins are used in daily commerce anymore.
