This book contains all you wish to know about amassing 'treasure' on the cheap. From an 18TH century Chelsea porcelain figurine acquired by the author for 20 pence at a jumble sale, to a Charles II commemorative copper box full of English hammered silver coinage found, once again. by the author, in the foreshore of the muddy river Thames in the heart of London. Lavishly illustrated with many discoveries made between the years of 1970 to 2004, wonderful objects, and all acquired from hunting treasure on a true shoestring budget..
