There could be a good BC thread wrapped around why someone would bury watches and money in the back yard instead of securing in a bank vault. |

Interesting thread.
Cannot imagine what would need to be buried that you would ever want to keep, use and need.

My uncle has 300k in AGE’s buried on his property. I don’t think that is the best idea honestly.

On the other hand, I do recall an incident where developers were prepping a residential subdivision in a formerly rural area and discovered a 4'x2' concrete block buried about 5 feet beneath the ground. When they broke it up, they found it enclosed a wooden box. No gold coins or Rolexes. Just a deceased pet. |

Burying backyard sounds like a great way to lose something of value...

the real question is, can you wear your Rolex whilst digging the hole?

Beware of people with metal detectors on your property. Cannot tell you how bad an idea this is, safe deposit box is the answer. Next best a good ground level floor safe.
Or enjoy what you have now otherwise someone else will enjoy what you have earned. |

So true Seth, I was driving around this past hour in this Christmas traffic wreaking frustration, where my scatter brain went to this thread and was picturing OP in real life, in the flesh posing Tony this question and picturing Tony's face with his response....man it made me giggle to myself in the car. Again, Tony, good one!!

Wouldn’t diamonds be easier to conceal? Wouldn’t melt either! Also, won’t register on metal detectors.
