If the bills stopped at 1929, it was a reasonable banking decision by the burier. Withdrawals are tedious from the Two Foot Down Bank, although its balance sheet is stable.

They'd probably get a lot more than the $100,000 the coin dealer told them it was worth if they sell it on ebay.

HAHAHA! They'll be lucky to keep any of it, after ten years of the state and fed, and assorted and sundry claimants, hacking away at their find in the courts. Shooda just stutted up about it, and sold it piecemeal to private collectors. Dufa! There's a big meetin' goin' on right now in the Statehouse: poring over arcane law to see how it can be seized.

Wouldn't it be the sole property of the owner of the property? Anyway, if he just kept quiet and sold the stuff to private dealers, he would have been better off.

That's the correct plural for dufuss. A really smart Freeper said so. Stutted is in the Scrabble dictionary...I'll bet.

There's no blatant point of commonsensicality that cannot be overturned by lawyers. (whose is it?)

That's the trouble with these young people. They had to go shooting off their mouths about their find. They wanted the 15 minutes of fame. Let's see if they actually get to keep any of it. Look at that that guy who found a sunken galleon full of treasure. It was in litigation for years.

You gotta choose!
Fame?
or
Fortune?

For these two, both will be fleeting.
