Exactly why the state should be paying market price for the gold if they’re going to have a law like this. These ol kinds of finds should be on display, not melted down and hawked at a pawn shop.

Under no circumstances would I go public with such a discovery let alone inform any government of my findings. Why the fuck would anyone obey such a law?
Is just want the gold value for it. It goes in a museum with your name on it as the discoverer forever. That’s pretty cool.
