In the USA things are still somewhat a free for all. We are not necessarily under penalty of law to reveal anything found on private property.

In the UK they are bound by law to reveal any coin find over 15 in one hole, silver coins, and any gold items. I don’t know all the particulars. In the US private property is generally finders keepers unless you are trespassing, and technically government property is prohibited, although many city parks and beaches are free game for us.

Didn't the liberal publisher of Rolling Stone, Jann Wenner have some workman dig up some gold on his property? Then he made sure to keep it all.

Should've given the guy SOMETHING.
