A teenager who found a 500g degussa £13,000+ gold bar while swimming in a German Alpine lake gets to KEEP it after police were unable to track down an owner

The 16-year-old found the bar while swimming just two metres beneath the surface of the water
The 6cm gold bar weighs 17.6 ounces, making it worth about £13,300/$19,000

Divers carried out a further search of the area but did not find anything

Authorities couldn't identify an owner and have allowed the teen to keep it

Who said exercise was bad for you !

Good find. 

More fun than metal detecting! At least for him.

Ohh wish it was me;)

Looks like he has filed off the series number before reporting it to the police. Good lad.

I guess it was lost in one of those boating accidents that stackers talk about.
