A detectorist who found a bronze Celtic artefact of a nude figure with a hinged phallus in its right hand hopes to sell the item at auction to pay for a holiday.
Paul Shepheard, 69, was at a detector rally in Haconby, Lincolnshire in 2022 when he made the find in a stubble field.
The retired processing consultant, from March, Cambridgeshire, said his wife Joanne had just found a medieval penny when he got a signal on his new XP Deus II metal detector.
