Man finds gold bars buried in military vehicle

Thought that this was interesting. Doubt they will be able to keep the gold though since it was probably looted from Kuwait during the Gulf War.

Don't think its Kuwaiti gold, billion of bullion and stacks o' cash disappeared along with Saddam and his two worthless sons. Being numbered should be easy to determine ownership...I wondered about the 20% finders fee? Might be enough for this fellow to add a tank or two to his collection. Wonder if there's TPG for tanks?

I'm surprised they didnt think to just melt the bars down into smaller ingots and sell it off that way and split it 50/50 between the two of them
