And this is why one should keep quiet about it, and sell it.
Finders keepers. Spain and any Government who jails someone who finds a treasure are tyrants.
They should instead THROW THEM A FREAKING PARTY as a THANK YOU and at least 15% to 30% compensation plus Operational Expenses and Tax Free.
And besides they lose that treasure when it was sunken, which anyways is Gold Stolen from other countries they took by force.
Like indi said it belongs in a museum
I would have melted that down so quickly and not said a word to anyone
Finders keepers.
One more problem created by the English lol dang you had to sink em
Finders keepers a hole
Looks like Davy Jones owns it.
The reporter in the background shouldn’t have said “come on” like that. That’s biased and unethical. You have to keep your personal opinions to yourself.
Spain shouldn't have been allowed to collect! They killed every innocent, living, breathing Native American in Florida, just before the British arrived. If anyone deserves that gold, it's the Native Indians of Florida. Some of them of Mayan ancestry. This is written in many archives, so why wasn't the proper justice dealt?
We does the woman broadcaster say, "come on!" Isn't the most reasonable explanation that the treasure was stolen from the native South Americans? It should be theirs.
Cmon on ???? OF cOurse . The gold was stolen from the Indians by the Spanish /
if i found a wallet on the street of someone else it is mine? NOOO, It's the same principle to follow
There was zero mention of the American company that's fighting over the treasure as well. I thought they were going to mention that in the very end, but instead they talked about some Bolivian people.
Your ancestors were slaves and you want the gold they mined? “Come on” 😂😂 sounds racist to me
WTF WHY IS SPAIN still getting gold to this day! It belongs to the Americas! This is complete bullshit.
Taking independently found treasure is such bulshit. If trash left on the curb is public good to claim how is lost gold not. This world is rigged against the people
F Spain
They should not have no say so if they find it but this world is so messed up when it come to any money
