I would have melted it all down, made a bunch of metallic "bookmarks" out of them, bought a bunch of Bibles to put them in and brought them all to Thailand or some other country to sell.
There is no source for this
Don’t tell anybody!
Will only keep getting worse until people grow some balls.
Australia is evil…
WHATS DRIVING ME CRAZY IS I CANT FIND THIS STORY ANY WHERE!!!!!!
Pawn stors wil take it
Lesson is you keep your mouth shut
well Australia is a communist country
Here’s the difference, in the US, you get to keep what you find, as long as you are fair with your partners. Everywhere else, you are subject to the government because you have no rights.
He evaded his investors cut and ran away from court
"spends 10 of thousands of dolalrs – he is not a rich man"
bruh what ?
Found a Jurassic Dinosaur 🦕 last time.
Government: mine 🖐🏼
His name is Allen Robinson. I’ve dived with him. He has discovered many more ship wrecks off west Australian coast an has now sadly passed on . RIP Allen 😢 love you my friend
Jaja satans stats hoveder typisk
Government should reimburse when they confiscate stuff like that
Rule #1 don’t trust the government.
Should be finders keepers idiot government always greedy.
id blow the museum up jfc
You would have to be an idiot to declare anything to these corrupt governments
Australia is still under the English crown hence both countries take the declaration of treasure finds.why would you bother to declare it at all.melt it down sell it or smuggle it and move to a neutral country
Screw museums. If they want something they need to pay for it. This story is why you don’t tell anyone.
This triggers me
That’s the typical Australian Government!! We used to be known as ‘the lucky country’. Certainly not anymore 🤷♂️
Go straight to another country
It’s bullshit, It belongs to the person who finds it. Did the government go find it? Did they give support when asked? Everybody thought it was a pipe dream until it’s found, then they all want a part.
Kind of what the United States government does all the time with taxpayers money!
The guy was a fool, it was gold, and completely untraceable for that reason. He could’ve melted it down and just sold it.
I’ll take things that didn’t happen for $500 Alex.
The Australian guy knew where a Spanish wreck was, correct. But he found an engraved ‘postal stone’. A similar postal stone was found in Cape Town, South Africa, left by Portuguese Captain Cristovao de Mendonca 1524. There is also a very detailed map of Sydney Cove in The Los Angeles Library Vault. The map belonged to Mendonca. This rewrites Australian history. It wasn’t just the Dutch, who came and left thinking the Indigenous were giants and the Chinese who regularly traded with the Indigenous. The Portuguese also came long before the British expedition and Cook ‘discovered’ Australia, who actually just mapped the east coast of Australia.
Oh man oh man oh man
Does anyone know who the treasure hunter is? I wonder what he is doing now.
Who’s inscription is on the coins will claim them.
Tommy Thompson’s is the guy he’s talking about, been in jail for five years because he refuses to disclose the whereabouts of the coins. Again who’s inscription is on them.
government is trash
Pay the guy the 10 million its worth and than tax the 10 million. Government still wins. Got 10 million dollars worth of gold in a museum plus 3 – 4 million in taxes it wasn’t expecting. Out nothing and gained 3 – 4 million in taxes.
What does he mean what are the rules?!?! FINDERS KEEPERS we’ve known since kids
European history is not history…its a rewrite of history
I mean…that’s what happens lol
Never report to the government. Satan is real and he’s elected lol
Finders keepers especially when you swam past some of the worlds deadliest sea creatures
JOE WHY DON’T YOU DO A SHOW ABOUT VICTORIA PEAK AND THE WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE
yeah, who tf would declare such a discovery?????? like, if i found ten million dollars worth of treasure, i would probably declare like 100,000 of those ten million hahahahaha
When you find something you keep it you don’t turn it in
The rules are pretty clear actually. Thievery is illegal. Therefore the government is committing (yet another) crime. Paint it how you wish that’s what’s happening at the crux of it.
We have no rights in Australia
its probably the annuaki’s gold and the elites didnt like what he had
NEVER EVER tell anyone what you find.
So legally Most treasures From wrecks are not yours. Under maritime law, and Most countries have a law about treasure, its either you can keep some of it, or it becomes state own because the original owner is dead, or you get taxes part of its worth or etc. Look them up before you go treasure hunting.
Store up treasure in Heaven
Ok the second guy befruaded people. He needs to stay in jail. But the first guy… he needed to have lied and fled the country. Melted down half of the treasure and sell it I little bits at random places.
This is what has been wrecking havoc on my mental lately… How can all these powerful entities like governments and corporations keep committing grave injustices with no repercussion? How am I supposed to cope with this s*?
