Kelly’s Heroes ?
Why did the hikers report their find?
They could have said to the museum “hey, would you like to buy some old coins to display?”
SHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
“may be entitled to a reward of up to 10 percent of the collection’s value.”
OR they could have shut their mouths and sold them for a lot more.
Under Czech law, the two hikers may be entitled to a reward of up to 10 percent of the collection’s value.
To be an incentive to turn in found treasure, it should be 50% of market value.
Dibs!
At present price of gold, 3.7KG of coins (assuming they are 24K) would be more like $430,000 - and that’s just the melt value, not counting numismatic / collector premiums for rare coins.
Ooh! The “may” be entitled to a “reward” up to ten per cent!
They are fools for reporting their find.
“may be entitled “ meaning whatever the authorities want them to mean. They may get 1/100 or nothing.
Just what I was thinking. Kelly, Oddball, Big Joe and Crapgame would appreciate this lol.
PING!.................
Europeans know their laws.
Authorities would be notified had they tried to sell any.........
Well trained citizens, reporting their finding.
Wonder how big a tax hit they’ll take on their “10%” reward...
Fun little city. I did some projects there for Orbital

Note to self. If I even find a jar filled with gold coins...SHUT UP!!! At that area... I’m guessing it was a stash for resistance fighters.
Thanks for the posting, the ping, and adding the kw. :^)
“Under Czech law, the two hikers may be entitled to a reward of up to 10 percent of the collection’s value.”
Shovel, hide it and shut up. Sell it off a little at a time. Nice income for years.
So they get 10%. After taxes 5 to 6%.

Why would you EVER let anybody know? Split it 50/50 and sell it one piece at a time over a few years outside the country. Keep the money in foreign bank accounts in a dummy corporation’s account.
