The silver was not just sitting there, waiting to be carted off.

It had to be mined and smelted first.

So THAT’s where I left it. I’m always misplacing something. My glasses, my keys, my phone, my silver.

Back in the 1500 Spain dumped tons of platinum in the ocean because they thought it was worthless but were concerned that someone would try to pass if off as "pale gold".

I wonder if anyone ever looked for it?

And Spain would undoubtedly try to claim it but since rather then losing it they threw it away would they have any case?
