What's the market for stolen gold like? is it very difficult to sell? 

Or is this not stolen and just made by an illegal mine not paying taxes etc

How much less than spot would someone in Switzerland be paying for this to make the risk worthwhile

Probably full of heroin inside that is worth more than the gold....

Not so sure of that, read reports recently that US citizens are turning to street Heroin as its more affordable than the opioids that's the docs prescribe there!?

You can offload it slowly with several individual sales. However I suspect they were destined for storage. Easier that storing large stacks of cash.
