Dropped there, from elsewhere.
That has happened here in Australia. Loner Nuggets found in non auriferous ground. Apparently here Aboriginals would see a glittering in the sun nugget and carry it for whatever reason and drop it somewhere else.
Lucky finders of these things any way they get there. 👍

“In a generous gesture, Richard says he’s going to split the proceeds with the land owner.”

So generous to split with the owner of the gold that generously granted permission for what was likely a bunk of folks digging interesting things of little monetary value.

Cool though. Maybe more there. Might be part of a stash or hoard. I’d quit searching for awhile and get the land owner to shut off access.
