Re: 2000 bars. About the same space as

Saddam's Gold Tanker Truck...where they found some of the the money he was trying to escape with. If you look at the pallet of gold bars you will see that there are 7 bars in each stack, 4 stacks in each row, and 8 rows. That are 224 bars at about 20 lbs each, which is 4480 lbs or 71,680 ounces. At $350.00 per ounce, that is $25,088,000.00 worth of gold on the pallet. Imagine how much more is inside.

BTW: The price of Gold is substantially higher today than it was when this article was written.
