Pensioner Peter Beasley, who quit his job in 2003 to spend more time searching for ancient artefacts, has uncovered more than ?500,000 of treasure with his metal detector.
The former bricklayer, 68, digs for six hours-a-day, three days-a-week on fields close to his home in Waterlooville, Hants.
He has sold a Roman pendant worn by Caesar for ?30,000 and is selling a Norman ring later this year with a guide price of ?80,000. . . . . . .
