State of emergency for Moscow: missile silo found a huge amount of money

This discovery in this place one could not be expected.

The project group of historians from St. Petersburg “On the roads and forests. Abandoned country” together with the YouTube channel “Russian secrets” discovered in an abandoned missile silo in Moscow more than one billion Soviet rubles.

A member of the journey of Olga Bogdanova told the newspaper that long heard about the buried money, but specific sites were not known. At the may holidays her friend Sergei Volkov from YouTube channel “Russian secrets” offered to make a joint visit to one of these points.

Together with her husband Alexei Antonov we do what we find interesting abandoned places abandoned them things and artifacts from bygone eras visited them and remove the video.

“About six months ago, my husband heard about the presence of abandoned mines with buried in it the Soviet denominations of the sample 1961 and 1991. It seemed interesting, but the exact coordinates he was looking for. And on the eve of the may holidays a friendly channel “Russian mystery” in the person of its author and presenter Sergei Volkov, offered to make a joint visit to one of these places. We have long thought — went”, – says Olga.

In the early 1990-ies unnecessary bills tons were taken to the mine, as due to the toxicity of burning them was dangerous. One such place was near a dull suburban village, the name of which, for unknown reasons, kept secret.
“It’s funny that the locals of the village, near which are buried the money, do not have the information about what just a few kilometres away there is a “treasure”. Perhaps someone knows, but us local no one spoke. I had to look for themselves,” says Bogdanov.

The journey there took several hours. Despite rumors of radioactivity of bills, the reading of the dosimeter showed that excess baggage there. Enthusiasts saw the money scattered over a large radius and even found a tied bundle.

“The hike to the mine and back to the car took about five hours. The road goes through forest, field and even river to get there was the hardest, as the crossing is made only “formally”, normal there is no bridge and without the rubber boot it “beat” the impossible,” – says the participant of the trip.

Mostly travelers across pyatidesyatyletia and hundred-ruble banknotes 1961 and 1991. However, there were banknotes: dvadtsatiminutki, tens, fives and rubles.

According to Bogdanova, on the territory of Russia can be at least three such caches.

“Accurate information on the number of such mines on the territory of Russia do not have, but I think at least three,” she said.
After the journey participants have published a 10-minute video about visiting an abandoned mine with Soviet money. According to Bogdanova, after seeing she wants “to go in search of a time machine”.

“The feeling at the sight of this amount of money, though out of circulation, it is difficult to convey in words. It is the delight and some sadness, because they understand that bygone era, not to return, that all this money does not need anyone else. After seeing I want to go in search of a time machine. In any case, this is the place where you want to return again and again,” says Bogdanov.
