Doubt it but that is its minimum value, gotta be a couple of hundred £ there.
What is the protocol when you find a chest or some other kind of container that is locked, are you meant to force it open/break the lock to get into it or should you report it first?
 
Theft is a police matter.



Theft is a police matter. However if somebody agrees a deal with a farmer to split a find 50/50 and reneges on the deal recourse is by civil action. Advantageous to the farmer because he only needs to prove balance of probability.

He didn’t “renege on the deal”, he lied about where he found it. It’s theft. I expect your sort who quite openly boasts on here about fraudulent claims and ripping people off thinks that’s fair game.
