apologies - you might have to rework the calculations....

according to the PAS website it says over 140,000 finds recorded since the Scheme began.

this is the pdf link to the last annual report by PAS with breakdowns of finds etc towards the end of the report.

I note it also says regular FLO contact with 190 clubs only

The new report will be out in the autumn

Its ok, trouble is with starting 7 years ago, is it was a trial scheme until 2003 and didn't cover all areas. I did my back on envelope stuff using this figure from pilgrim:
"Phase 2 of the Portable Antiquities Scheme in 2003-04……………………Around 30,000 finds were recorded: 68% were reported by detectorists and 32% by others"
