Does anyone besides me have a problem with the following statement? I can’t make the math work right for some reason-
“There is certainly compelling evidence to link the two bounties. According to 1901 reports, 500 coins were stolen by Dimmick - only 73 coins less than the 1,427 discovered at Saddle Ridge.”
Wouldn’t the statute of limitations have run out by now?
The math would work out if there had not been a typo and “more” instead of a “less” in the sentence.
500 stolen - 73 = 427 found.
$30,000 in $20 coins is 1500 coins, not 500. 1500 minus 1427 = 73 unaccounted for.
