well, it did happen, and it didn't suck!
I thought it was very well done. Nice video presentation of the artifacts; great color and clarity. Good story line. I enjoyed it. Hope others got to see it and enjoyed it as well.
Approx 700 items in 4000 pieces! Average gold purity over the entire find, 18K. $2.75 million each to the metal detectorist and farmer.

Will be shown again at midnight tonight.

I purposely skipped the spoiler alert post as it doesn't air here for another couple of hours, but I'll be watching it drinking smiley

NatGeo is advertising Tuesdays as always Treasure Tuesdays, might be good!
Thanks... watching it now.

Oh, one other thing...

When the detectorist first asked the farmer for permission, the farmer told him he'd be wasting his time because two other fellows had already been over it.
