    What kind of dimwit willingly hands over £193,000 worth of anonymous gold bullion to a public official?

    I really feel for that person who went to great lengths to conceal his (or her) stack, probably in response to outbreak of The Great War (World War I).

    I suspect the collector value of those coins is much higher than the bullion value.
