An Old Gold Joke

Gold Split

On the Hungarian-Soviet border, Hungarian and Soviet border guards find a huge piece of gold sticking out of the ground.

After arguing, on who should be the rightful owner, a Soviet border guard shouts: "I know komrads! Let's split it like brothers!"

Because Hungarians know well what the Soviet term "like brothers" means, a Hungarian border guard replies: "Oh, no, no! Not "like brothers", let's split it half-half!"
