Saddle Ridge - Why Did the Finders Tell?

[Dan Hughes]

The biggest question about the Saddle Ridge Hoard (1,427 gold coins shallowly buried in seven metal cans) is, Why did the finders publicize their find?

Was that a stupid move, or a smart one?

My latest podcast explains the reasoning behind the public announcement, and it also discusses a few theories on how the coins got there in the first place.

Nice podcast and it makes sense now, after the fact. However "if" those coins would have turned out to be from the mint robbery, they would've been sorry for letting that proverbial cat out of it's bag.
