A Wal-Mart supermarket in Philadelphia, USA, reported a robbery in the early morning of the 13th. When the police arrived at the scene, they saw coins all over the floor. It was later learned that a 10-cent denomination truck was broken open, and 10 thieves stole 2 million coins weighing 4.5 metric tons worth $200,000.

According to the “New York Times” report, the theft occurred in the early morning of the 13th. The stolen connected car departed from the US Mint in Philadelphia. The driver parked the connected car in the parking lot of the Wal-Mart supermarket halfway. It is to find a place to spend the night. Unexpectedly, when he was about to leave the next day, he saw that his connected car had been stolen.

According to the police investigation, due to the upper limit of driving time, the drivers of the connected vehicles will always look for places where they can spend the night during long-distance journeys. The police also found that the number of thieves was about 10 people, driving a white Chrysler 300 and a dark pickup to commit crimes. It’s not clear if the thieves had any prior plans to get hold of the Connecticut driver.

Regarding how to use these 10-cent coins, police officer Torres (Miguel Torres) also expressed doubts, “This is the smallest coin in the United States. If it is used in large quantities, it will not only easily arouse people’s disgust, but also may be suspected. “.
