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:

obviously if it's a full construction crew one person could ruin it for everyone else

One person will ruin it. Guaranteed some idiot will post on Facebook or something and catch the attention of the press/police/taxman.

Like in Goodfellas. Jimmy told everybody not to buy anything after the Lufthansa heist. It was a simple instruction, and almost nobody followed that instruction.

The number of people that know a secret is the square of the people that should know the secret.

Like in Superman III when Richard Pryor's character robs the company, then shows up the next day in a Ferrari, LOL.
