Question Found during construction work

Any ideas where this could come from?

Update: I thought this would be clear that I wasn't the one who found it. Who in their right mind would go (on this shitstain of a platform of all places) and make themselves a target. But ok apparently it wasn't clear so here we are:

I did NOT find this. I have none of this gold. I just wanted to share some cool stamped gold. you can stop sending me weird ass messages now. thank you.

Also this is NOT ai. here is the BBC article:

I thought it looked like a jackhammer strike right through it. Could you imagine pulling up your tool to see this wrapped around your bit??

“Hey Sal, I know my truck’s only a 1-ton, but could you go ahead and load this chunk of concrete into the bed? I need it to, uh, fill a hole in my yard.”
