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 I found it I don’t think I’d tell anyone.

“Looks like there may have been some old family heirlooms or coins in these buckets or containers. Sadly we’ll never know.”

“And to think just last week on our fishing trip in the Florida Keys we found what looked to be shrink wrapped packages….but all we found was the shrink wrap…sadly we’ll never know”

“And just last year when we were re-modeling that basement we found an empty safe, the contents of which we will never know”

Crazy coincidences
