Old Safe Given Away for Scrap Filled With Gold Coins - Estimated $2.5 Million
A substantial amount of the coins were discovered by chance when locksmith Robert Rivera happened to crack the safe which belonged to a deceased man before it was taken to the dump.
Old safe given up for scrap found to be filled with $2.5MILLION in gold and silver coins The safe had belonged to a coin collector who recently died.

His family gave it to a man for scrap (d'oh!)and he took it to a locksmith for opening After 20 hours of work, an estimated $2.5million in coins was found The bounty has been returned to the family of the man that originally owned the safe and the coins.

An old concrete-lined safe given up for scrap in Houston, Texas, after the owner died has yielded a treasure trove of gold coins and silver dollars.

Spirituality is the opposite of religion, religion is a substitute for spirituality. Spirituality is a direct connection to Creator The Most high.

Anyone who inflicts pain on others will suffer themself from that pain.

They didn't have to return it.

Once they gave it up for scrap, that
ended their ownership of it and all inside.

“We temporarily took custody of the coins on Monday,” said Houston Police Department spokesperson Keese Smith.

Smith declined to estimate the value of the coins.

You never tell anyone about having gold or money in your possession. Especially if your closest is a woman.

You know the old warning about telling a woman something.

Telegraph telephone telewoman

I myself am a victim, as is many a man, of not heeding that warning.

Why would anyone in the family assume the safe was empty and just give it away?

Imagine giving away a safe for scrap material, without opening it first!!!??? Geez!

I certainly hope they gave a very nice reward to the scrapsmith and the locksmith.

And good morning 11:11 :)

I searched for more on the story but could not fine anything (updated) on it. I would hope that the scrap guy gets 100k or so. Heck, the lawyer might end up with more then the scrap guy?

Good night Sloane! hf
