Last night on Florida's I95 freeway a US Treasury truck carrying four million nickels was southbound on its way from Philadelphia to Miami when it collided with another southbound truck, spilling $187,000 worth of coins all over the scene. The passenger in the Treasury truck died as a result of the accident and Florida police are currently investigating the scene. Also on hand are Treasury officials attempting to clean up the mess and eager citizens trying to grab some coins and not get slapped with a Federal robbery charge.

Hit the link for a news report video.
Too bad its a federal charge for picking up a few 5 cent coins.

The worst part is, you know when the insurance companies get involved, the driver's family is just going to get nickel-and-dimed.

Ba-zing.

Grab some and go to a penny falls machine in an arcade and try and win one of those watches with a calculator or a pack of Marlboro with £5 strapped to it.

It's nickels. N-i-c-k-e-l-s. Just like coins. Morans.

I can see you've had plenty of experience, but did you ever win a poker chip keyring?

This would be good if the accident wasn't fatal. Maybe he always wanted to die surrounded in money...

Couldn't help it, sorry.

Goes and waits for the Finalgear Hell-bus service to arrive.

After the Feds leave the scene there's going to be 20 or 30 old people walking around the highway with metal detectors fighting over who found that nickel first.
