ROBBERY ALERT: Bags of bank notes were stolen in Illinois.

Bags of bank notes were stolen in Illinois during the Central States Numismatic Society show. The stolen currency, worth over half a million dollars, includes a variety of coins, notes, and medals from the English Civil War period. The Naseby Cup, a rare artifact commissioned to commemorate the Battle of Naseby, is one of the most exceptional numismatic objects in the world and is currently being sold by the Minnesota-based dealer, Emporium. The company is working with the police and the Numismatic Crime Information Center to recover the stolen collectibles. [Extracted from the article]
