[QUOTE="dave14110, post: 106246, member: 14"] I would say nothing, if you do it could be declared aboriginal trust & they could possibly claim rights to the land also. No offence to Aboriginals but in my opinion this country & every part of it is everyone's. It's like Ayers Rock now to most uluru, to me it's still Ayers Rock & Uluru is there name for it. Just an opinion and no offence to them. Nobody should own this country or any part of it, nor should anyone be treated different from anyone else. Or benefit from been any nationality or race. My understanding of Law is anything Heritage is to be report but then the government can restrict the area of find. Possibly resulting in heritage park which we can't detect on, not only that the finder here in Australia doesn't even get a reward for the find even if it's museum quality. I'd like to see reward for detectorist or (finder) & land owner similar to that in UK. Much better Idea and then we wouldn't feel the need to hide thing. [/QUOTE]
