Hope it doesn't get washed away by the sea.
$16K is not even a pound of gold...
It's probably too heavy (dense) to go far.
I hope they ban metal detectors... this would be far more fun if it's just shovel-work. IMHO, it'd be best to restrict it to either a) families with children or b) persons in full pirate regalia
Somehow I suspect poorly dressed Somalis won't be participating... ;) :P
