It was a rare tank option for that model sort of like the gold sovereigns issued to James Bond in his briefcase in From Russia With Love.

Maybe I’m thinking of the wrong one
Wasn’t he the German officer that lets him use his tank to shoot the bank? I may be mixing 2 movies

““Gold has a fingerprint. They know where it’s been mined. It was definitely stolen from Kuwait.”
No... moron. Two big problems with that. Gold is used, recycled, etc. And even if you could identify what exact mine it came from, good luck proving that mine ONLY sold to Kuwait.

What an idiot! Gold melts at a very low temperature. He would have been a millionaire! I would rather sit on all that gold and never be able to use it than to just give it away. The police that he called probably kept it and sold it themselves.

You got no Vietnamese restaurant in town? No local curry joint....there in England? No Chinese laundry?

He should have kept one to see if they would give him a reward.

Better:
He should have turned in one to see if they would give him a reward. As for the rest, hide them in a secure location far from his property.

“The German tank commander played by Karl-Otto Alberty is actually a parody of Brando’s character in 1958’s The Young Lions, Lt. Christian Diestl.”
Found it - he was pretending to be him in a cameo appearance (as it were)

More than likely what happened - or could never get back to it because they were captured
