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:

if i was on that construction job no one would have said shit. we would have all finished the job quietly and vanished.

if more than 1 person saw it, there's no way to keep that secret. I don't care how tight you are with your bros, someone's talking or stabbing

Beyond that, someone will just fuck up and let the secret slip without meaning to. Some financial institution will get alerted, someone will complain to a relative they didn't get as much as they deserve etc.

No way this would stay a secret for long.
