In Texas, a truck carrying new dimes overturned on the highway. As a result of the accident, coins worth a total of $800,000 spilled onto the road, Vesti.Ru reports, citing The New York Times.
To collect the scattered change, it was necessary to close the road for 14 hours. A special team of workers used shovels, brooms, and industrial vacuum cleaners to collect the coins. Most of the money was collected, and the remaining coins were washed away by the rain.
As a result of the incident, the driver and passenger of the truck were injured.
