They’ll be lucky if they can keep even 10% of the find because the state will be certainly knocking on their doors.

They should have deleted the video, split the gold in half, and kept their mouths shut.

We read about these gold finds all the time. Too bad people never learn.

Lol! I know my governments well. I still bet the EU will try to claim it. Probably the Russians too.

If the bars have serial numbers, they probably belong to the Kuwati government.

My first thought. That’s one of my favorite WWII movies even though it’s just a comedy. Don Rickles was great in that.

Big mouth!
Keep it to yourself.
Now the whole world knows.
That reminds me, when I was 19, I left some gold in a tank. Did anyone find it?

Rickles. Savalas. Carrol O’Connor! Sutherland. Eastwood, goes without saying. Stuart Margolin. Gavin MacLeod!

Unbelievably great cast and movie.

Fabulous theme song too:

I wonder if there’s any markings on it that will identify where the bouillons were smelted.

That’s the kind of thing you don’t talk about. You just quietly cash in. Sure someone will make a claim on the gold now.

Maybe it’s some of the gold that Roosevelt confiscated from Americans and gave it to his commie buddies.

WHY OH WHY do these people report these finds??? Some government agent is going to show up and seize the whole load. If I found 100lbs of gold bars somewhere I’d keep my mouth shut.

Band saw it into smaller sections (save the dust!) and melt it with a few 14-22k rings or some gold scrap to throw off an assay or isotope analysis that could trace it.

Recall the Swiss got egg on their faces sitting on a bunch of gold that hadn’t been refined well enough to get all the mercury from Jewish dental work out...
