Apparently the objects will be donated to a Holocost museum in Argentina.

There were antiquity objects found in the cache. The discovery was related to an Interpol program on trafficking in illicit objects called "Operation Far East":

BTW, the hidden room apparently had an exterior window...

There were stories of submarines carrying 3rd Reich officials and treasure to Argentina's coast at the end of the war. I suppose that the only way to authenticate this stuff would be contemporary photographs showing objects.
Thanks Marc,
typical media hype and BS, a "hidden" room with a window- what will they think of next.

Nazi's were welcome in Argentina at one time- I don't know when that policy ended- but there is probably a lot of genuine stuff really "hidden" there.
