'I found what looked like sweet wrapper - now I'll make £40k selling it'
David, who had only just taken up metal detecting again after first trying the hobby in the 1970s, said: "I hadn't done any metal detecting in years but when I retired I decided it would be good to do something to get me outdoors."
"I was next to the footpath when my XP Deus machine started to signal there was something in the dirt. "Even when I realised it was a ring I didn't think it would be valuable; I just tucked it into my pocket and thought it might make £20 as scrap."When I got the valuation email saying it could be worth £40,000 I was completely stunned, it was a good job I was sitting down."The land where the ring was discovered was first owned by Henry de Broc in the 13th century.
