A couple from New York had an exciting discovery while engaging in the activity of magnet fishing. James Kane and Barbie Agostini were magnet fishing in a lake in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens when they pulled up a safe containing an estimated $100,000. The safe was filled with water-damaged $100 bills. The police confirmed that the safe was not linked to any criminal activity and allowed the couple to keep the money. Mr. Kane mentioned that they have found safes before, but this one was particularly surprising due to the large amount of money inside. Mrs. Agostini added that there were no identifications or any way to locate the original owner of the safe. The police congratulated them on their find. Magnet fishing involves using a strong magnet to trail through lakes and rivers to see what can can be pulled up. The couple shared that they started magnet fishing during the Covid-19 pandemic and have found various items such as World War Two-era grenades, nineteenth-century guns, and even a full-size motorbike.
