    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    All jokes aside... I take it it must be illegal to transport gold on an airplane?

    Brings new meaning to "I feel 10 pounds lighter".

    I don't think it would be if you can prove ownership.

    Do they need to be re-assayed?

    I wonder if it was planned, with the contents of the holding tank supposed to go to a confederate on the ground a la the way error coins were smuggled out of the SFAO c. 1970. For whatever reason the person who was supposed to be on the ground did not service that plane.
