A barber American tourist from Ohio City shared on social media his unexpected joy when a suitcase he bought from a thrift store happened to have a "treasure" in it.
After taking the suitcase home and opening it, the man found something floating in the inner lining. Opening the lining, he found a fresh wad of cash in a ziplock bag.
"I counted, and there are more than 20,000 Bangladeshi takas in the bag," said the unknown guest happily.
The man commented that although the number is not large, they are still very interesting. Perhaps, he thought, the old owner of the suitcase had stashed his own money in it and forgot to check for leftover items before selling it to a thrift store for liquidation.
"It's so lucky, even the price of the suitcase can't compare." The American boy said humorously.
It is understood that this is not the first case of someone finding a "little lucky" in an old suitcase. Earlier, in March 2017, a woman who had inherited a house from her elderly relative was shocked when she opened the suitcase left inside in Towcester, Northants, England.
It was an old leather trunk, much heavier than usual, because it was full of gold coins and hundreds of silver coins, as well as silver bars worth up to £450. As well as gold and silver coins, the treasure includes multiple 22-carat South African gold coins for £1,200, a large collection of sterling silver British coins, and 22-carat gold.
The woman said that this may be the money accumulated by her relatives for a long time. By now, their value has increased by about 4 times compared to when they were accumulated. According to experts, the total value of this "treasure" is as high as 35,000 pounds.
