Largest-ever haul of Iron Age gold coins to go on display

I have issues...

The one major bad thing about the EU... find something, the government steps in, takes it, determines if it is treasure trove or not, (it's not like they have a self interest or something) more than often keep it, and gives the finder a pittance in return for being a good citizen...

Imagine the finder of this way cool stash... OH S*** look what I bloody found! WOW look at all that gold!!! I'm rich!!! No more money worries!! Buggers No wait the government will declare this treasure trove and steal it from me... Do I keep it and risk going to jail or turn it in and get next to nothing... Humm moving to Italy might not be too bad of an idea... But with the government snooping into everything and x ray'n packages they may well find it and it is jail for sure... Blighter's it was a nice dream while it lasted.....
