One young man who spotted the wet treasure on Saturday Dec 05,2015 jumped into the river to retrieve it

Bystanders, thinking he was attempting to commit suicide, alerted the police, who arrived just as he was fishing out the money. He is now trying to claim a share

In Austria, anyone who finds cash and brings it to the police can claim between 5-10 percent of the sum and has the right to receive the whole amount if its rightful owner cannot be identified within a year
