10 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm would have guessed more       

But under the terms of a historic agreement Odyssey will have to share any finds with the British government. The company will get 80 percent of the first $45 million and about 50 percent of the proceeds thereafter.


Goooooooooooooooooo Britain!

Anyone want to work out how much they'll actually get?

Assuming they found exactly 500,000,000 million worth of coins and loot, they will get 36 million from the first 45 million, and then from the remaining 455 million, they will get 227,500,000.  So in total, they will get $263,500,000.  Feel free to correct me, there were a lot of zeros.

They should've pocketed most of it then gone public with it, saying they only found a small amount. The idiots.

I think $250 million is more than enough for them.

Although they do deserve it.
