    "The owner of the building says he did not know anything about the coins."

    Now why would the owner say that?

    "Workers say they found about 300 gold sovereigns, dated 1800 ...."

    Sounds strange. Modern sovs (UK) started being minted in 1817, and the earliest Aussie sovs were 1853.

    Knowing the media they probably got everything completely wrong :p

    The year is probably wrong.
    The value is probably wrong.
    The description could probably be wrong.
    etc
