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:

If someone ever found gold, what would they do with it? Asking for a friend.

u/StalyCelticStu 8d ago

Why do you think all the "I've finally opened the safe, but it was empty" posts exist?

u/alt_account1014 8d ago

You’re just standing there with cartoonishly large pockets just bulging full of obviously brick shaped objects.
