If you go to the beach with metal locator,pay 2500EURO to police and lose the metal locator.

I love USA ,UK and AUSTRALIA,very good law for MD hobby !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's not the only country in the EU with stupid laws about this subject, I always thought UK has the best regulation on that matter, in some countries like US of Australia one can go around with MD (apart few exception e.g. military or natural reserve soil and the like) and recover what he found and bring it home with no exception or boring or breaking laws...

generally speaking in continental europe I think good places for MD hobby are just France , Germany, the Netherlands and very few others that's about strange and somehow ridiculous to me, I mean if we are 27 countries we must share a common politics also on that matters

instead you see stupid laws like in Portugal or Italy or Greece where you can't do any serious ancient stuff recovery with MD without risk that police bring you to some jail or pay some thousands euros fine and lose your MD too...

instead in countries like Germany where people go for MD hunting and found stuff without much troubles or UK where people sometimes found real treasures (e.g. vikings gold treasures) that museums there buy at fair prices...

that's real EU idiocy and non sense to me
