Do the detectorists get a certificate or something for their honesty? | ||

They get a payment and they get to be a part of the archaeological process. I have a colleague that had a significant find recently. Her and her "crew" did the dig, cleaning, initial description and cataloguing, and surveyed the area around the site. With supervision from professional archaeologists. Without this system they would get to handover any finds to the landowner. |
