The man was using a beginner's metal detector when he found a cache of gold coins thought to be worth(roughly $160,650).

He said they were typically buried as a sacrifice to gods.

It's gonna be hard to live up to that scale of a find. I wonder if he is going to have as much fun the second and third times he goes? And if he is going to upgrade his detector or keep using the lucky one?

"What do I do with these", give me a break. I guess stupid is as stupid does. The coins are now in a museum for display.
Loose lips sink ships, in this case he lost his find.
