Buried Coins Sealed in Wax Recovered During an Oklahoma Hidden-Money Search
No map. No notes. Just a general area where a father might have buried money.
After their father passed away, a family began clearing out his belongings and discovered that he had a knack for hiding valuables in creative places throughout the home. Those discoveries raised another question: could there be more hidden inside—or buried in the backyard?
Crys and I helped search both.
Inside the home, we examined potential hiding places for concealed cash and other valuables. Our search equipment includes a remote inspection camera that lets us look through accessible openings into wall cavities and other tight, hard-to-reach spaces.
Outside, we systematically grid-searched the backyard for possible buried valuables. That search led to something we had never encountered before: a buried cache of coins sealed in a block of wax.
The wax-covered coins shown in these photos came from the backyard. Other items were recovered during the search inside the home. Across both areas, thousands of dollars in cash and coins were recovered.
Every recovery is different, and this one was a reminder that sometimes the clues begin with a person’s habits rather than a precise location.
To protect the family’s privacy and security, we are not identifying the owner, sharing the property location, or showing all the findings.
