Nathan Elkins has reported uncleaned coins "straight from" the ground in Suffolk, England, that are being passed by metal detectorists to a North American coin dealer ("Having Cake and Eating it too: Unrecorded and Freshly Dug British Coins Sold in the USA"). Another dealer has been advertising "English dugups".
Please could the offers and staff of the Portable Antiquities Scheme investigate these reports? Have these finds of coins been reported and recorded?
