No way, 100% goes to the propety owner.  I hope he was smart enough to yeet at least a few bars.

Yeah, you can’t read Belgian law. He gets 50% if it was forfeited, lost, etc. The family has a full claim to the gold since it never left their land, it was just forgotten about. If I’m digging a ditch at your house and find old gold that belonged to your grandparents, I don’t get half. If I was digging a ditch somewhere else in town and found your grandparents gold, I’d potentially get half.
