Potential objects of treasure, as defined by the Treasure Act 1996, must be reported to the coroner within 14 days of discovery. Our Finds Liaison Officer based at the Yorkshire Museum can advise and facilitate the reporting of treasure. Treasure is defined as: objects over 300 years of age and comprised of more than 10% precious metal (gold or silver); coin hoards; modified precious metal coins; prehistoric metal hoards.

Bring along your archaeological finds for identification and if they are more than 300 years old, have them recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme.

Free (museum admission applies), no need to book.
