These contractors were renovating an Arizona property when they found $500k in cash. It was hidden in military ammunition containers. They claimed it, but the homeowners wanted it for themselves. In the end, the court declared that it was the rightful property of the heirs of Robert Spann, the man who put the money there. He passed away 11 years before the discovery of the cash, which went to his children.
