Money Tree

Cabin fever has me scrolling YouTube and I happened upon this.

Anyone ever encounter coin(s) when making firewood? Plenty of metal, but never a coin.

 

That is amazing!

 

If a chainsaw could have nightmares.

 

That was my first thought too

 

Been thinking about this money tree. The article or video I saw said the coins, some several hundred years old, would be worth a million bucks. A tree like that would never work in my area, some gool ol' boy would chop it down and cash in. Am wondering if people in other countries could be very superstitious about doing that, like it would bring them a curse for life.

 

That puzzles me too. It seems that there would be some single old coins worth some money there. Of course, they’d be beat to heck…

 

Bet there's lots of wooden nickels in there!

 

New for me, never seen it.

 

Yeah, right. AI strikes again.

Should have waited until April Fools Day to post this!

 

Guinness world book of records says it’s true. That is some strange behavior. We have enough problems with fencing and no trespassing signs LOL

 

I looked it up too and its true.

 

Ya know I was fully expecting this “money tree”

Ms. buZZsaw has one. Dried up in the flower garden. She makes dried arrangements with it.

 

It would be nice to collect some of the "hundreds of years old coins"

 

Yes it would. As a collector for 40 years that was my first thought.

 

There are lots of those trees over here. The ones at Bolton Abbey and Ingleton are not far from me.
