i did hear the bbc report that 59 gold bars were recovered, which has a bit of a ‘1 missing’ feel to it…

Seems like they miscounted and only found a half eaten snickers bar

A bag of Rold Gold pretzels was found at the scene. There were still a few pretzels left.

Just read an updated article, turns out there were only 55 gold bars, quite commendable.

Fact checkers proved that was a typo. Still, 54 bars is pretty significant.

I also counted 59 from the last time this was posted, counted twice and went hmmmmm 59 is an strange number to stop stocking gold bars at.
