Worry not, Besoeker - Brown won't get his hands on this lot (you're presumably referring to the more-than-half of Britain's gold reserves he sold, at a time when its value was extremely low, to help finance New Labour's golden rain of wasted public spending). The discoverer and the landowner will share 50:50 the value of the gold, which will be purchased by museums.
