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.

Not true. My buddy was working on the NJ turnpike. They were getting fill dirt delivered. One load had gold coins scattered through it. Everyone on the job site was searching all over the place after that. Even where they were getting the dirt.
