"That's a nice old coin you found. Now give it to me! It belongs to the authorities. We will put it in a box with the others, place it in storage, and no one will ever see it again."

but note that the sheeple are perfectly conditioned
I can see the state collecting them as with these, but if more common dates sell 'em at auction - but what about the finder ?

I like the UK approach

I see Finders-Keepers is the subject now... I agree, but getting money (tax-free?) from the State , you couldn't be sure if it was auctioned off or used they the Red book...!
