Collectible coins, currency, fine silver and jewelry are among the more than 200 unclaimed property items to be auctioned online from May 1 through 5.
"We hold these auctions when we need additional space in our vault," said Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs, whose office oversees unclaimed property in Illinois. "We choose items that typically have not been touched in about 10 years and that would make an interesting gift."
Items to be auctioned include three graded Silver Eagle coins, a 14-karat rose gold woman's hand-designed ring, a 24-karat stamped yellow gold bangle bracelet, and an 18-karat white with black rhodium gold woman's cast halo ring containing a jelly opal. Among the other available items are uncut sheets of U.S. $1 bills and $2 bills, a variety of international bank notes, an Elgin pocket watch with chain, and several ounces of .999 fine silver, including Englehard bars.
