Yeah - it'll be interesting to see if this one turns into a full blown fight/court battle.

Funny how "claims" start coming out of the woodwork when something of this nature is found and always by those who put forth no effort or investment in finding it whatsoever!

WOW!!!

THINK ABOUT A FIND LIKE THAT

Thanks for the link..

Watch the U.K. take possession of it like the IRS did w the recent hoard over here....
