Discovery of possible Kruger Coins

Published by admin at 2:23 pm under Blogs

The Guatrain is a long railway project being constructed in South Africa. Supposedly there is a story milling about today *wink wink* how there has been a large find of gold coins that have halted the project all together. This is a 25 Billion dollar project that employs around 63k jobs, imagine all of that halted for a treasure discovery.

Construction of the Gautrain in Johannesburg has been halted for six months after workers found a large quantity of gold coins minted between 1892 and 1898 at the construction site in Rosebank. Excited historians believe the coins could be the missing Kruger millions.

Historians pointed out that they will need to further comb the area for any additional coins or other clues. Work on the Gautrain will be suspended from today.

    I think its a joke, if such a treasure where to be discouvered it would be all over the news worldwide… I have a hunch that the government did stop construction, but not for treasure, instead because of corruption. Millions probably went missing when a BEE company was employed. If my sources are correct then the real millions is probably situated in ermelo, if not, the kruger national park. I mean what brit in their right mind would go digging up the kruger park?

    I got a idee where the coins might be but I do not have the resources to confirm it.
    Paul Kruger was to clever and have used teqnics to missled the people and the enemy otherwise all was for nothing. Coins is still in SA and safe. The workers involved in the transport of the coins was eliminated and the only remaining person who knows where is was has passed away.
    Sounds like a story???
