British Treasure Law’s Long Arm
28/02/2010 06:22
A young girl of nine years is helping Mom in the garden when she finds an old coin.
As it turns out, it’s really old. 700 years in fact.
But Mom passes away suddenly and the young girl keeps the coin.
Now 23, she takes it to a museum to see what it is, and is promptly charged with keeping a treasure.
How stupid is that?
