Maybe it’s illegal, it’s vastly different from country to country but last time I checked finding treasure on your own property does not mean you own it 100%. Which i think is crazy but yea.
I remember when we could “find” treasure currently owned by other civilizations and throw it on a boat, take it home and just claim it was “found”. Times change I guess.

If some group of US soldiers in Iran find a heap of gold bars, they’re definitely not turning that over to the legal authorities…
Presumably because they’re actively trying to murder the legal authorities
Which is pretty fucking stupid because if a mining company finds loot, they’re allowed to go mine it for decades and make billions.
Depending on country they still have to pay for the rights and might even have to compete with other bidders for it
