The dog dug up a fortune under the tree
In Northern California, a couple was playing with their dog on their property when he began digging around the roots of an old oak tree. As a result, the curious dog made the owners the happy owners of a treasure of 1,427 gold coins. That's about $10 million. All coins are in perfect condition and date from 1847-1894.
It is noteworthy that they were not even in circulation, they were bought new from banks and hidden away.
The authenticity of all coins has already been confirmed by specialists from Professional Coin Grading Service
The approximate cost of each such coin is about $27,000. There are several extremely rare examples, the price of which can reach up to $1 million.
One famous coin collector has already said that this is most likely the most incredible find of his entire life. The lucky owners of the treasure keep their names secret and intend to sell the coins through the Amazon website. In addition, they are afraid that after the publication of data about the location of the found treasure, hundreds of treasure hunters with mine detectors will rush there.
Coins in denominations of 5, 10 and 20 dollars were stored in 6 vessels in chronological order.
Apparently, someone was using the hole under the oak tree as a personal bank, constantly replenishing the “deposit” with new jars of coins.
