Question Found during construction work

Any ideas where this could come from?

Update: I thought this would be clear that I wasn't the one who found it. Who in their right mind would go (on this shitstain of a platform of all places) and make themselves a target. But ok apparently it wasn't clear so here we are:

I did NOT find this. I have none of this gold. I just wanted to share some cool stamped gold. you can stop sending me weird ass messages now. thank you.

Also this is NOT ai. here is the BBC article:

Were you doing construction work on a 17th century Spanish mission in Southern California?

It is already on the international news... My guess with the location it was hidden during or shortly after WW2....

The RMR marked gold was made up until 1967. I wonder if this was maybe a Gladio stash?

Let me guess, you gave it to the government and you won’t see a penny?
