O/T collector finds gold in old army tank.

[AmexRuislip]

Apologies if fixtures.

Man finds £2,000,000 in gold in tank he purchased for £30,000.


Nick Mead, 55, found the valuable bullion while restoring a Russian T54/69 with his mechanic friend, Todd Chamberlain.

He filmed himself opening up the diesel in case he found weapons and needed to show it to bomb disposal crews.
But instead he uncovered five solid gold bars, weighing up to 12lbs each – which are believed to be worth around £2 million in total.

Unbelievable

I'm guessing if it's akin to the gold that the Nazi's looted from families, an investigation could turn up that it belongs to some Kuwaiti family?
Hoping that the finders get some sort for reward?

WTF would you buy an old army tank anyway for £30k? And then say that you found £2m of gold in it?

I guess you might raise a few eyebrows when you take a couple of bars into cash for gold..

If you kept the back of the Transit tidy I'm sure there's at least ten quids worth of stuff

"After seeing the tank advertised on eBay, he traded in an Army lorry and an Abbot self-propelled gun worth £30,000."

eBay seller

Maybe it wasn't in the tank at all but is just a ruse to launder their share of the Brinks Mat job!!!
