A Northern California couple out walking their dog on their property stumbled across a modern-day bonanza: $10 million in rare, mint-condition gold coins buried in the shadow of an old tree.

Nearly all of the 1,427 coins, dating from 1847 to 1894, are in uncirculated, mint condition, said David Hall, co-founder of Professional Coin Grading Service of Santa Ana, which recently authenticated them. Although the face value of the gold pieces only adds up to about $27,000, some of them are so rare that coin experts say they could fetch nearly $1 million apiece.

it would scare me to death to have bitcoins stored on a hard drive and NO WHERE ELSE.

Hard drives crash all the time, why didnt someone with $4million know enough to make a backup?

The funniest scene is when Dick Shown is on the phone with his mom and she is trying to tell him to shut up and listen... OMG I roll on the floor at that every time

One of my othjer most favorite scenes is in Ghostbuster when they first accidentally blast the maid who is bringing a cleaning cart down the hallway. She pops her head out from behind the cart and says “What the he!! are you doing?”

Just the way she says it make me laugh out loud

That is quite an old story. I think it has become clickbait.
