And will the tax man come and ask for his cut?

Just wondering, if you find sunken treasure, is it technically considered taxable income? I have a feeling that the government officials would interpret the tax code in a way that it is taxable.

Under federal and Florida law, up to 20 percent of the treasure will be turned over to the state for display in a museum, while Brisben's company and the Schmitts will split the remainder.

Do they get just compensation or does the government just take?........................
