Research: Armored truck coin spills

[Tuberale]

Coin spills from armored cars happen frequently. The Internet is a fast way to locate a lot of these, maybe in your area, quickly.

Just spend 20 minutes searching, cutting, and pasting the results of a Google search for title words. Here are the results of the first nine I found.

about the treasury truck carrying "nickles" to banks in south florida * coin spill spot (in the middle grassy area on I 95 near cocoa beach. florida ) --cops will arrest you if they see you metal detecting there * ---they say the coins are --US "govt" treasury money --be it coins or bills --its still "the treasurys" money --even after they "stopped" their clean up / recovery efforts -- they do not want you having it --peroid --its grubbermint money --(greedy grabby goverment - they will never recover it but they do not want the common folks to benefit from recovering them )

Cocoa Beach spill probably not government property. Probably belonged to a bank. If so, the bank may authorize you to search and recover said coins. If spill from the government, a search/salvage agreement would still be possible, allowing someone legal access to the site in return for 10-20% of the recovered monies. Neither a bank nor the government are making money from lost money. Something to pursue further?

it was a butt load of shiney new nickles * headed from the philly mint to south florida to be spread out to banks - (thus still "treasury" or "US govt" money ) lots and lots and lots of "nickles" --they did bring in a clean up crew and got most of them "cleaned up" but when they got to the end there was still coins left behind --but at a certain point it "cost" more than it recovers --and they quit --
but just try to pull off the side and detect that area -- busted!!! the cops WILL arrest you for "attempted theft of govt funds" even if you got no coins --if you got coins then its "theft of govt funds" -- the govt is just that way . -- it never gives the common man a break , or a chance to make a "untaxed" buck .

I read about that. Proves money speaks louder than lives. Sad about the EMT unable to reach injured because of greed, though.

That multi-million cache of $100 bills found in one of Sadam's palaces that evaporated within a week after being found sounds suspiciously like the Knights of the Golden Circle are still operating ... in a different part of the world.
