In 1985 in Jackson, Tennessee, city workers were digging up a parking lot for repaving when they found a glass jar full of gold coins. Unlike the Saddle Ridge find in California in 2013 which was well documented there is little information on what happened to the coins except that the city workers grabbed as many as they could and left with them.

Can anybody provide more information about this 1985 find?
 
I don't live far from Jackson, I'll see if I can find out something. I know a lot of people in the construction business there. Most excavating and construction is contracted out by the city now. I don't know about 1985. Someone might remember something or a juicy rumor. May not lead to anything.
